Western Rabbit
Adapted from a recipe in the Casserole Cook Book, page 135.
This recipe is from a cookbook titled Casserole Cook Book by Better Homes & Gardens, printed in 1961. This recipe sounds very good, on my to make and taste list. (I had to look this one up on the internet when I seen no 'rabbit' in the dish. A 'rabbit' or 'rarebit' in the cooking sense is a cheese sauce served over a bread or toast of some. Sort of like there is 'toad' in the dish 'toad in a hole'.) Links to the Shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
