This recipe has all the ingredients for success but lacks something.

It needs something to add color and taste.

Very tasty even though I didn't make the gravy out of the liquid. Very easy to make and delicious. I used my mandoline slicer to make matchsticks sized potato pieces and added shredded carrots. I'd give it five stars if it had some color to it. Maybe I'll add some corn or red and orange bell pepper to it next time.

I thought it was great! I read one review before preparing that said it lacked color and was bland, so I added, quartered onions and some zucchini I had in the veggie bin. I did also add some addtional black pepper and a pinch of red chili flakes, not to make it spicy, just to spicy it up! The man loved it! Loaf of French bread and it was done!
