Margaret's Review | Rating

Took me longer than 15 mins to prepare. I had a lot of the sauce leftover so was able to add more drumsticks and make another batch. Delicious!

Sarah's Review | Rating

Nice, easy dinner. I made it in the crockpot instead so the prep time was very short and the flavours merged well over 8 hours of cooking on low heat. Also very easy to adapt to taste preferences: I left out the celery and carrot; halved the amount of onion; and used Wattie's canned savoury tomatoes instead of condensed tomato soup.
