    Good
    tomatoes not on ingredent list, but in directions, so I used one 15.5 oz can stewed tomatos and an extra 1/2 cup of water, still could have used a little more liquid, rice a little chewy but good. Also reduced chick peas to 1 can and added some thyme. Topped w/Greek Baked Shrimp, Family liked both - 7/7/10
