• 4. Add the S&W diced tomatoes, all 4 cans of the beans plus half the juice from the kidney beans. Add the Italian Herb Seasoning, if desired.
• 5. Cook until the carrots are tender. The chicken pieces should also be done.
• 6. Add the Wishbone Italian dressing. Put in a tablespoon or so at a time until you think it tastes good. (I use this brand because I think it tastes the best and has a nice "twang" to it. Yes, my Dad was from Arkansas!)
• 7. You may add other ingredients if you like or just experiment. One of my friends added 1/4 of a cabbage and, because she didn't have the bottled Italian dressing, she used the dry, packaged Italian dressing.
