"I served this as an appetizer with an Italian dinner. This was super easy and a huge hit! The original recipe from Kraft had this baked in an aluminum foil packet on the grill, but the version below is for the oven. I have already had several people ask me for this recipe, and my sister is making it for a party tonight."
