I tried this today. I just made minor changes because I needed to use the crock pot. I think the recipe is excellent the way it is, but I added carrots and potatoes so we would have everything ready at once. I didn't have gingersnaps, so I baked a small batch They worked well for the gravy. - 11/20/08

Just an FYI...so many people mention adding bread, apples, potatoes and even carrots to the pot, be very careful about your carb & sugar caloric intake. Carrots, when cooked, release sugar. Apples add sugar. Also increasing the ginger snaps is increasing the cookie calories. I'm just saying..... - 8/25/09
