This was good, and very healthy, but I didn't find it to be "soul satisfying". We had the leftovers with brown rice, and that was better. It certainly was a great way to use some random veggies that I had.

Lovely combination of ingredients. I had to add an additional tbsp of cornstarch as the gravy was very thin. I used 2 cups of broth instead of the ranuales and water and added anothe 1/2 tsp of chili Very enjoyable dinner I do wonder if it will feed 10 - Think more like 6

I loved this and it makes a nice gravy/sauce when it reaches it's done time in the crock pot. A slice or two of low carb bread and some smart balance spread to go with it and it was delicious. Good hearty stew. I used 1/2 lb more chicken and 2 cans of the italian style tomatoes. was delicious!

It was a little bland so I added more Italian seasoning, more chili powder, black pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, a can of corn and some of those green tomatillos just for kicks.

I am a mother of three and live in central Pennsylvania. My children were very active in after school activities and found we weren't spending anytime together at meal time. In 1998, I decided to start cooking my dinners in a crockpot so that we could have a home cooked meal together once everyone came home. My children now get so excited to see what we are having to eat and love the smell when they walk in the door. My family calls me the crock pot queen. LOL I use my crock pot everyday of the year. My three children are now in college and before they come home they request their favorite meal. I still continue to cook in the crock pot for my husband and I. It is nice after a long day to know your meal is ready. It also helps in keeping my grocery bill down. With zaar, I can print my shopping list and that is all I purchase is the ingredients on that list. Now, my two daughters have been crock pot cooking while in college. They find it is easy to cook for the themselves and their friends. It is an easy way to have friends over for dinner after classes I still love trying new recipes and purchasing cookbooks, especially crock pot cookbooks. Happy Cooking!
