Good stuff! We added chicken as well and got great results from it, I like the fact that it calls for cream cheese and half-and-half instead of heavy whipping cream. Highly recommend! -
This really should be my son's review. I made it for him tonight and he absolutely loved it. I am always looking for quick easy meals as he always eats before me and my hubby, this was great. I didn't use green peppers as I didn't have any and I added a seasoned chicken breast which added extra cooking time but still so simple. I don't eat pasta sorry, but I did taste the sauce and thought it worked really well. Thanks for posting
