Comments
Tried this with chicken breasts (because I had them), V8, crushed tomatoes (that got added during cooking because I didn’t have them in the house to begin with) and chicken-tomato bouillon made up with 10 oz water because I didn’t have the V8 at first either. Oh, and some bacon because it was included in another recipe and sounded good. Not necessarily healthy, but it smells yummy, and we’ve got three or four hours to go yet.
