White Hominy Casserole

It is getting colder today in Philadelphia. I will use my oven a lot in the coming Winter. This bit of Southern goodness comes from A Taste of Georgia cookbook.

White Hominy Casserole
Excellent with Baked Ham and Curried Fruit

One 1-pound can of Hominy, drained
1 cup sharp Cheese, grated
2 Pimentos, chopped or 1 small jar Pimentos
12-15 Black Olives, sliced or chopped
1 can Mushroom Soup, diluted with 1/3 cup Water
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1/4 teaspoon prepared Mustard
Bread Crumbs

Butter an ovenproof pie dish or a 1 1/2 quart casserole. In this, place a layer of Hominy, then a layer of Cheese, and over this sprinkle some Pimentos and Olives. Cover with a layer of Soup which has been mixed with the Worcestershire Sauce and Mustard. Repeat until all ingredients have been used, ending with a layer of Soup on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly and hot, then sprinkle with Bread Crumbs and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until brown on top.  Recipe courtesy of Mrs. Willis Edwards (Catharine).
