“I found this recipe in a pampered chef cookbook called, "It's Good For You!" This light version of a normally high fat entree is creamy and delicious and doesn't taste like "diet food". Give it a try, you will be glad you did.
* According to the cookbook it has 300 calories and 8 g. of fat per serving.”
