    Random Recipe - American Chop Suey

    By Kevin Williams

    I plead guilty to having not heard of this.  I mean, I think when I was a kid we ate that La Choy brand chop suey.  But American chop suey?  We've talked about this a little bit on the e-newsletter the past few days (sign up if you aren't on it!) and it appears to be mainly a New England tradition?

    I found this recipe in the Lancaster County Amish cookbook I recently got my hands on, I've never seen the recipe in any other Amish recipe books.  The Amish cook who submitted it said it had been a favorite in her family for years and that it serves 12. So, here it is:
