Very easy and super quick. It was really great for a weeknight when the kiddos has baseball practice and then a game. I served this with carrots and celery sticks with ranch dressing and potato chips and it was a well enjoyed meal. Thank you for a great meal on a hectic night ForeverMama! Made for PAC Spring 2014.
