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.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

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!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.
