Grandma's Secret Tip
Grandma's Secret Tip
Grandma sometimes turned this dish into a hot dip for bread or fresh vegetables. She shredded the zucchini instead of slicing it and grated the onion instead of chopping it. Then she proceeded as the recipe directed, omitting the green bell pepper, eggs and bread crumb topping.
