I was invited to a church that is having lunch between services. I saw this recipe and couldn’t wait to try it out in them. My house smells wonderful. Thank you for sharing

I used the 2 tablespoons salt in the chicken stock. I almost didn’t, but thought I’d follow the recipe. Anyone else find it too much salt?
Suzanne
I agree. Super yummy recipe, but after looking at other recipes, I would use 1 or 2 teaspoons instead of 2 tablespoons.
