    Incredible!
    This is so simple, yet very tasty. I used low sodium chicken broth, and I added all types of seasonings such as oregano, parsley flakes, pepper, and salt free seasoning. Delicious! - 3/31/13

    Incredible!
    This was excellent just the way it is. The only other seasoning I used was a little black pepper.

    I had to use vegetable broth because my daughter is vegetarian and I wanted her to be able to eat it too...otherwise I wouldn't have made any changes!
