• Place a pat of butter on top and serve right out of the baking dish. Yumm!
• Serving size is for small dollops, as this is how many guests we have at Thanksgiving, there's hardly ever any left over, and we have lots of sides.
• To freeze for future use, cook as above. Let cool to room temperature, and spoon into zipper freezer bags in the quantity you desire. Labeling the freezer bags with contents and quantity before filling is recommended. Zip the bags closed and flatten to distibute mixture and "burp" to get rid of any extra air in the bag. Best used within 3 months of freezing.
