It’s been a while since I pulled out the crockpot! I think the last thing I made with it was either beef stew or pulled pork, but it really was quite a while ago :thinking: :shallow_pan_of_food:

This recipe sounds deeeeeelicious! With Imbolc right around the corner, it’s a great time for any cheesey/dairy recipes. Thank you so much, @Amethyst! :heart::broccoli: :cheese: :yum:

I don’t eat meat, so I’m assuming vegetable stock should be fine. Thoughts, @Amethyst?

I don’t eat meat either so I would assume vegetable broth would be just fine :blush:

LOL! Just trying to temp your palet!

You’re welcome! I’m glad you liked the recipe! I figured it would make for a great Imbolc recipe.

I don’t see why it wouldn’t. I didn’t taste chicken in the finished product at all so I would think the veggie stock would be wonderful!

@BrightBear I think I’m going to use vegetable, I think it will enhance the flavors of it better than chicken.
