    Sorry! I meant to say to add salt, pepper and anything else you desire to taste! I can't see where I can edit that in, but here!

    I needed this for bad cold/congestion. Recipe needs more spices. I added a little cayenne pepper to recipe and lots of garlic powder for their medicinal value plus flavor. - 5/23/10

    This was very good, but next time I would almost double the broth. - 9/22/09

    Didn't cook anything beforehand (otherwise why use a slow cooker?). Used frozen chicken thighs for a little extra flavor, everything came out great! - 1/19/09

    There's definitely something missing spice-wise. I added some basil and garlic powder. We still loved it! - 3/2/09
