Grandma Iola's Vegetable Dip

This is a really old recipe. Iola was mother the of  Peg, Sally, & Leona. Though she passed away years ago, her cooking talents live on in her girls, grandaughters, great grandaughters and others... (she is my grandmother, so I think she is the absolute best!).

Grandma Iola raised her family of 5 children in Park City Utah, and worked in a Cafe called "The Junction" for years.  She would go to work @ 4:00 a.m., make 20-30 pies (including the crusts), dozens of biscuits, rolls, bread, and untold other items, and then prepare to cook for the breakfast rush!
Here is a recipe she made often for her family.  It's easy, delicious, and so adaptable! Try it as a topping for baked potatoes, or stir into mashed potatoes...
