This was very tasty. Ommitted the seasonings (didn't have any) and swapped the chicken soup for mushroom. I know, I know..... I shouldn't really be rating this when I didn't make it too the recipe. But, it was really quite good. All the kids asked for seconds which was a shame as there wasnt any :-(. Next time I will double up for sure. Thanks Angela Dawn. ps. just remembered I didn't add the 1/2 cup of milk but it wasn't missed!
