I usually just buy a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store to make mine. Super easy to make, inexpensive to feed the family, tastes very very good! Highly recommended! - 11/12/13

Great recipe and keeps me on the right track with my meal plan. The only thing I did different is add some carrots, celery and gave it a boost. Good comfort food and not too many calories :-) - 12/1/09
