Notes:
This is a great filling meal using all whole ingredients and lots of spices for taste! If you don\\\’t have more than 10 spices I suggest you get yourself to the nearest bulk store and bulk up! It\\\’s the best way to make tastey food without all the extra calories and fat! You can easily make this a vegetarian meal by removing the chicken. It\\\’s still great without it!
