bkmundt - I've made this three times now and love it! Everyone thinks it smells really great when it's cooking and just as great when it's eaten! Loved by children and adults.

Looks good johnro, Annette would have a lot of recipes suitable to adapt for the TMX and for the diet conscious, they are very tasty.

Haven't tried this yet. I will probably use chicken as DD doesn't eat pork and I can't fool her.

maybe will replace the chicken stock powder with 1 tablespoon of the Chicken stock paste from MWOC. Thanks Johnro  :)

I love Annette's books for their ideas. I don't like them for all the packet and jar stuff they use. But, I just ignore that and use my own bits and pieces.
Good idea to start converting her recipes! Thanks Johnro!
