I found this recipe in my Kraft foods magazine and it is so good, especially to be so simple! I used Creamy Balsamic Vinaigrette and it was a little more pungent, but still delicious! We served with garlic bread and Caesar salad. Thanks so much for posting here!

I got this from the Kraft foods magazine and it is sinfully decadant! I used Italian Vinaigrette dressing because that is what I had on hand. I'll use this recipe again and again. Thanks for posting!
