My grandmother gave me this recipe in the early 2000s, it was made for my grandfather (Pop) when he was young and thought I'd share. No idea how much its drifted from the 50s version my grandfather ate but it is also my favorite. The lazy version was fine when i had limited cooking time, the full version is pretty significantly better.

Enjoy!
