Love, love, love all of the veggies, I added a bit of broccoli that was needing to be used up. For me the one things that I would change is to add some more seasoning. Next time I'll use veggie or chicken broth along with extra seasoning herbs. Still, it was enjoyed with some more salt and pepper and a sprinkle of cheese.

This was great. I changed it slightly. I used chicken broth instead of water and used fat-free evaporated milk instead of whole milk. And I also added about 2 cups of chopped chicken that I needed to use up. I sprinkled with cheese befor putting on the table. Great flavor and full of vegies. Thanks for posting.
