Recipe with a good story from today's Birmingham News. In 1973, Julia Child visited Bham, AL to give some cooking demonstrations. She and her husband were hosted by a local man at his home. He and his partner had to COOK for Julia Child! Read more !! The first night, they served this casserole. Julia loved it and asked for the recipe. She named it for one of her hosts. See less
