That's good to know. I threw out the leftovers when I got back in town on
the following Friday not knowing better. :-(

Sortof, I guess I *did* make one additional (minor) change. My other dish
for this event was a Cajun Chicken Pasta Salad. I boiled/simmered the
chicken in stock with carrots, celery, garlic salt & FGBP. After I removed
the chicken to cool, I boiled the potatoes in the remaining liquid and then
used a TBSP or 3 of the stock as per your recipe. :-)
