I made this yesterday, it is very good

This lady has tweaks that might be great too. She added Swanson Tuscon flavored broth, I have not seen that here yet, may ask the store to get some. Plus she used some of the beans as a thickener. Mine was plenty thick because of the Quinoa...I had the red type in my pantry

That does look good! I'm chilling off my duck stock tonight, maybe I should use some for this.

I made half last night...very tasty although I didn't go the 3.5-4 hour HI cooking

time. I tested it at 2 hours and the chicken breasts were at 165, so I dumped it into a big pot, added the beans & kale and cooked it stovetop for 15 minutes (there wouldn't have been room to continue in the crock). Also I needed it to be finished and then cool enough to refrigerate before going to bed.

I was only using a 1.5 QT size crock and sauteed my onions/celery first, so that may be why it was done sooner.

I did have seasoning issues...broth was low sodium and I rinsed the beans so I kept adding 1/4 tsp Kosher salt over and over again until my mouth was happy.

Dinner tonight.

Thanks K!
