Recipe Notes

[My 2 Cents]
Depending on which chicken broth you use, it could be loaded with lots of unnecessary ingredients. While on our juice fast and even right after, my husband and I scoured our cabinets and pantry and trashed anything with icky ingredients (MSG and high fructose corn syrup are a no no in our house). One of the things we got rid of were our chicken bullion cubes. I found a great substitute for the more popular brand at my local Target: Orrington Farms Broth Base & Seasoning Chicken Flavored. We've used it in a couple of recipes already and I'm extremely happy with it! -OR- if you prefer to make this a Vegan dish, you can always use a substitute vegetable broth.
