    When you reply to threads they are saved under your My Topics tab. So you do have this thread saved :smile:

    Edited to ask: I am assuming this recipe is made using chicken breasts since it doesn't specify. Is that correct?

    .... I am an idiot. Seriously? I have like 3000 posts on here and have always thought "what's the point of bumping, the "My Topics" tab only shows your most recent 25". It never occured to me to click that number, even though I do it to other members. DUH.

    On topic, yummy recipe! I think it might make it into lunch rotation.

  • Bumping to save this. I also wish there was a way to just save a thread without needing to fill space with an unnecessary comment someone will end up wasting their time reading.

    You can just add a smiley and it will work, or do a search later.
