I have been making this savoury dish for years now. It makes my mouth water always whenever I think about it. It is a full meal and it’s convenient to make. The ingredients are mostly pantry ingredients. This takes longer to cook but it’s worth it! What I love most about this is I don’t have to spend eternity in the kitchen. I just put everything into the slow cooker and leave it to cook. Perfect for busy days.
