This recipe is from Taste of Home. The original used turkey which would be very good. I made a few changes and skipped the turkey. It is a very good meatless option. Very hearty and comforting... I plan to use left over turkey and make it that way after Thanksgiving! We loved it without the turkey. Just add a salad and you've got a quick meal. Hope you try it and love it!
