This is simply a wonderful dish! Thank you, my Mom had been asking for it, and I had no memory of her ever making it. She says it is very much like what her Mother used to make. You helped me make an old lady's day! Holly

Adapted for crock pot and used fresh thyme and rosemary. Increased Chicken broth to 2 cups to ensure enough moisture was in the cooker. Super Delicious!

I only had 1 sweet potato so I added 2 white potatoes and it was scrumptious!
