    This sounds good but I don't get the point of the slow cooker. Why are you using it if you are already cooking the chicken and rice? - 2/25/10

    This sounds great ! I'd like to try it. What are the settings for the slow cooker ? high ? low? I don't have a auto, how many minutes/hours? Does anyone know ? Thanks ! - 7/16/08

    Enjoyed by our family. Made some necessary substitutions, but the recipe is flexible enough. We only used 2 chicken breasts, skipped the dairy and added white northern beans and vegetable broth. A friend made it and added lots of broth to make it more soupy. Nice! - 2/10/08

    Definately will make it again. Tasted great, kids ate it, and made for great left overs. - 3/18/07
