Great! I used less potatoes(don't like to peel) and also used 1 cup chicken broth instead of water. I didn't add the cheese because my husband comes home late, so instead I spooned out the portions into bowls and added cheese then threw them in the microwave for 30 seconds when we were ready to eat. I even liked this recipe and I'm not a big fan of kielbasa.

1.5 cups = 12 oz. Beer comes in a 12 oz bottle. Coincidence? I think not. I used beer instead of water and it was definitely what the kielbasa was asking for. I like my recipes a little more precise... a large potato can vary tremendously depending on the type you're using. I decided to use 3 lbs, which was only 3 large russet potatoes. I think the potato/kielbasa ratio was pretty good with this measure, although I might have liked just a touch more kielbasa. All the kielbasa in my grocery store came in 12 oz packages, not 16 oz. So I had to dip into a second package to get 1 lb... very annoying. There was a bit too much liquid... I may have to take a few hits off my beer before I poor it in! I used olive oil instead of vegetable oil, cheddar instead of American and I got 6 servings, not 4. Oh yeah, the recipe doesn't specify, but the oregano and basil measures are for dried herbs; use a tablespoon each if you use fresh.

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
