Serve with noodles, dumplings, or some crusty bread. We served ours with bread to sop up all the yummy juices. Everyone liked it and I can't wait to see what my hubby thinks of it. He is working second shift tonight so he missed it, but I am sure it will be just as good reheated.
This meal was so hearty and comforting. It's just what I needed today. I wasn't feeling to well today and it really hit the spot. The other plus is it makes extra that is easy to freeze!
