This is a FANTASTIC and VERY versitile recipie. I've made it several times, using whatever meat and veggies we just have lying around. Sometimes I use italian sausage, sometimes chicken, sometimes chunks of steak and once I used pork chops! No one in the house likes broccoli so I've used asparagus, canned corn, green beans, bell peppers, and sometimes peas! Sometimes I even use more than one! It does need alittle more garlic and some extra spices. SOOOO VERSATILE.
