WELL, Farrah, even you had to pay for the electricity to pump the free water out of your well.

Why not splurge. Tomato juice (unsalted) instead of water. Now it's a $11 meal. Serve it on Sundays.

Very funny Judith. LOL. We do have a well, so our water was free, but at one time we lived in the city & had to pay for the water, so I know all about EXPENSIVE water. :) Take Care, Farrah

This was delicious. Very easy and cheap. I just added a little garlic powder and seasoning salt.

Hey Farrah,
I work for a water plant and there is no way those two cups of water are FREE, unless you have a well. Did you know that we only drink 5% of all water used for a household? Sincerely, Judith

PS: I'll try your recipe, sounds goooood.
