This recipe is either exactly or very close to what I make, but found it at cooks.com. I believe it is from ';Country's Cooking'; magazine, and everyone that tries it loves it! Always make it to use up leftover fried chicken, minus the skin, as well as add any left-over veggies needing to be eaten.
