This is not really an old recipe. It was not my grandmother or mother's recipe, but I have made it for several Christmases, in a slow cooker, and as folks drop in there is something hot and my family loves this.
Some of our family has to make several stops on Christmas so a large dinner is not always needed.
We have country ham and all the trimmings for dinner but I keep something hot for drop ins.
I first tasted it many years ago when our parish priest had our Adult Education Committee for lunch.
I fell in love with it.

Looks like a good eat and like a good solution to what to serve when.
I've been making lots of soups in my slow-cooker these past few months, so thanks for this, I will be adding it to my recipes! Sounds delicious!
All the best,
Eileen
PS ~ 'LOVE your banner picture! Beautiful!
Wish I had a slow cooker - but a few hours simmer in my huge stockpot would probably work as well. Smells delicious!!!
When will the next pot be hot?!
That sounds really good Peggy, I love mushroom soup!
butter, cream and sour cream?
Not for me, I am dairy intolerant.
Find a good one without milk products and I'm your man!
