I made this without the chicken to serve with sliced leftover baked chicken breasts. I only had 1/2 a bag of mixed veggies and about a cup of cheese. Added 2 T butter because it seemed a little dry. Excellent results!

I was skeptical about this one at first, because of the small amount of liquid required. It turned out fantastically well. So well, in fact, that my picky eater requested seconds before she finished her first plate. I did not use quite 2 cups of cheese (only had about 1 1/2 in the house), and it did not affect the finished dish. By using the frozen veggies, the carrots came out less mushy, which was a good thing. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks for posting !!

This was excellent! I really didn't expect it to come together as well as it did and it was absolutely perfect for a one pot, kid friendly meal. I was looking for something quick to make after work for my husband and 13 month old and they ate it all up! Thanks, this will be a staple.

Family loved it. I only had vegetable broth available and used colby jack cheese. Will make again for sure.
