There are many of these with the same name but this one is unique. A great recipe and you get TWO DINNERS OUT OF THIS 1 RECIPE. Perfect for making one and taking one to another family. Or making one and freezing one. Freezing directions below. Or if you have 12-16 people to feed. My guests and family loved this. I served it with crusty bread. A total kid pleaser also. You can add more seasonings if you wish but perfect for a cozy dinner at home. Enjoy CHefDLH.
