How many servings will this recipe yield?

Mom of Two said...

I am trying to remember the last time I made it how many it made. I am thinking it would easily serve 4.

Making this today but with chicken (raw) and adding kale just because I have it already. Smells Devine already!!

Mom of Two said...

Can't wait to hear how it turns out with the addition of kale and using raw chicken instead. I only used leftover turkey because the first time I made it was after Thanksgiving and wanted to come up with a new recipe for leftover turkey.

Are there other options to substitute the raw sugar?

Audra you can sub stevia for sugar. It is a 1:1 ratio. Hope this helps :)
