"This is a recipe that I got from my Women's Weekly recipe cards when I first got married. This is a recipe to serve quite a few people. I am posting the original recipe straight from the card: '"Cooking for a Crowd". I have made this, but many years ago and everyone loved them, although I must add that since this is an old recipe (not showing my age at all.) common sense will prevail with this recipe as it not written well."
