Chef Extraordinaire
Every year when we go to Aruba, I am required to make a big batch of American Chop Suey. It's one of the simplest recipes but everyone looks forward to it so much I can't say no. Twenty years ago, my daughter begged me to come up with an ACS recipe that tasted like the ACS she used to get in the school cafeteria! I did and she loves it.
I'm not sure what makes this dish so popular. Maybe it's the school cafeteria connection.
My kids called any dish like that pot glop. It was something that just went glop into the pot. And they loved it also. I think they got the name from the kids at school. I still will make a small pot just for me with leftovers.
