I LOVE this casserole. I don’t make it very often because it makes so much and I don’t want to feel like I have to eat it all. It is definitely a family favorite, and has become a favorite of friends that I have made it for as well. My college friends refer to it as Corn Flake Surprise, referring the to crushed corn flake topping. This was another of our Christmas dinner sides this year and I was so happy my mom made it.
