    We had this for supper last night... YUM! It was very flavorful and I loved the addition of the peas! I recalculated the cals using Healthy Request Cream of Chicken soup & only a small can of green chilies instead of diced tomatoes and green chilies. It actually divided up into about 11 or 12 servings making it...

    Definitely a keeper!
