Saturday Stirrings – Texas Jo Casserole

I know its not Saturday anymore, but better late than never, right?

I love recipes from JoAnna Lund. All of her recipes are family friendly and made with ingredients she could shop for at her local grocery store.

My mom loves to have her daughters cook new recipes for her but she rarely tries something new herself. This is one she actually cooks on her own.
