    My family loves this. Great for when we're not feeling well but want something that's still good for us. Rotisseire chicken is good in this too. I added a smidge of garlic and poultry seasoning. - 1/8/12

    I use leftover cooked chicken breast and saut� my veggies in a little olive oil. Savory and parsley are good choices for herbs. - 4/16/11
