We have had a round of colds/flu in this house for going on three weeks and I came up with this a couple of days ago. I didn't feel much like cooking and nobody felt much like eating - or so we all thought. This turned out amazingly good and comforting. We ranked it right up there with chicken soup for comfort food. I didn't do this, but you could add a cup or so of frozen mixed (or leftover) vegetables if you wanted.
