This recipe came from another list and I made it the other day. It needs a
little more flavor, but DH, who usually likes his food very spicy,
suggested that I not add anything to the pot but the eater could add more
herbs if desired. He then proceeded to add fatfree saltines to his bowl,
and I added some garlic/herb powder. The liquid smoke flavor leaves a
pleasant taste that you don't want to overwhelm.
