You don’t have to be attending a funeral to make this yummy dish. The name derives from the fact that this is pure, delicious, comfort food. Unlike some recipes though, mine doesn’t involve a yucky, processed can of cream-of-something soup. I won’t say it’s healthy, but it’s better than the processed stuff for sure. So good! We love having it at holiday dinners.

Read MoreHow can something so white taste so wonderful? It's called Parmesan cheese! We go through tons of the stuff in my house and vegetables are no exception.

Also, try doubling the sauce so you have extra to dip hot rolls into. It is so good! This has become a non-negotiable at our Christmas dinner.

Read MoreI absolutely love the flavors of the spicy Dijon mustard combined with the tang of the cider vinegar and buttermilk, and the sweetness of the brown sugar and the secret ingredient-celery salt.
