juniperwoman's Note:

This is so yummy, and such a versatile recipe, too! Use whatever dressing/veggies/seasonings you happen to have on hand. Serve it as a side dish... it's particularly wonderful with grilled chicken.

Really enjoyed this one! Great flavor. Definetly get the larger container of chicken broth, I used all 32 ounces.
