Elly, This comes from the 1986 edition of the Southern Living Annual Recipes. I have everyone but three of these annual cookbooks, 1980, 1981, 1982. They are outrageously expensive, but this book contains all of the recipes that were published in SOUTHERN LIVING during the year. This was first made by my husband and I tried, foolishly, to make it and he has never made the recipe again! This page is so spattered--we must have had this dish hundreds of times! ENJOY!
P.S. If you can't get Southern Living where you live, it's on the web. I think that the web site is www.southern living.com. It's a great southern magazine loaded with yummy recipes!
