Great recipe! I'm wondering if anyone has made this with beef or chicken?

This is a delicious recipe! I made it with pork chops instead of stew meat and used Swanson's canned chicken broth instead of water and used fresh garlic instead of garlic powder. It was absolutely delicious. The longer it cooks (on low heat), the better it tastes. I let it cooks for 2 hours and it was fabulous. Thank you for this recipe!

Cheese Crispies

If you have to be addicted to snacks, this is a great one! I was introduced to these while "stranded" in an airport with a woman who came prepared! They're great to munch on anytime, but are really excellent with wine!! Try them!
