I know this is an old thread but I just wanted to say - I made this the
other day and it was really yummy!

I do have to admit that I ended up adding some of that chicken boullion
powder because it didn't have enough "flavor" for me. But with the
addition of that - it was fantastic....I will be making it again
although this time I will probably just start with chicken broth in
place of the water.
Even my super-picky 5 year old ate some
