Reviews

Made this for dinner and loved that it went together so easy and was able to throw it in the crock-pot and forget it until it was done. The house smelled wonderful as it cooked. Served over steamed rice. I followed the recipe exactly with the minor exception of adding mushrooms at DH's request. Enjoyed the ease, clear directions and taste - a true comfort dish. Made for PAC Spring 2010
