Interesting dish. Was edible, but will not be added to my recipe book. Didn't have enough of a wow factor and was actually bland. Family ate it, but voted that this was not a keeper.

So I may have tweaked this "what's left in the cupboard recipe" for what I had in the cupboard. No chips, but Italian bread crumbs. No onions, minced onions. No chicken vegetable soup, tomato soup. Added mushrooms and a few more of my favorite spices, pinch of red pepper flakes, oregano, basil. I also have a problem measuring ingredients when the recipe doesn't call for them. But the husband said it was a win! It's a splash spicy but good.

Why make this if not putting in the right ingredients?
