Meal No. 394: Pipetizer Casserole for Guests

The fun visits haven't ended yet.

I took Tim Schwarz back to the airport so he could head home to New Orleans early Saturday afternoon, and then I got to welcome Alison Pomeroy Edwards (WFU Class of 2006) right after that. She dropped off her husband Josh and some other Wake Forest chums at the Wake Forest-Vanderbilt football game, and then she came to the Roediger House for some good ol' teacher talkin'. It was good to see her and we had a delightful afternoon catching up.


I wasn't sure what their plans were, but I wanted to get some time to catch up with Josh and Alison together, so I tossed out the idea of them staying for dinner before heading home to Durham. Ah, but they had two more friends in tow, so I made a quick adjustment and served them up the simple meal of pipetizer casserole, with green beans on the side.


It seemed to satisfy the appetites, because there was a 100% rate of return for seconds. That sort of thing makes a cook happy, y'know.



"Pipetizer Casserole" is an adaptation of "Tailgate Casserole," from The Big Book of Casseroles, by Maryana Vollstedt. San Francisco: Chronicle Books (2000), p. 120.
