ReplyDeleteDo you think this would be good with black beans too? I have those on hand!
ReplyDeleteI love black beans so I think so.
DeleteGreat thanks! I love them too. :)
DeleteThis Florida girl will be making this on Sunday. ;)
ReplyDeleteCan you make this without the peas?
ReplyDeleteI would think so. It will just be chicken barley then.
DeleteI have it in my crock pot right now. I did not have carrots so I just use the sweet potatoes and I added a can of black beans to the recipe. We shall see how it turns out
