Thanks Kristin!
Wow, Heather! This sounds and looks delicious. I am a sucker for recipes like this. I can’t wait to make it. Pinning this baby!
This sounds right up my hubby’s alley. I can’t eat it because I’m vegetarian. But I suppose I could eliminate the bacon and swap out the chicken broth for veggie broth. 🙂
Heather this looks like the perfect meal… One Pan = AWESOME! Pinned.
I totally agree – less mess to clean up too! 🙂
