Submitted by ebbtide

"When I saw the insert in my Sunday paper, just knew that I had to try and replicate a fantastic picture of Tuscan Chicken. After tweaking it a bit, came up with a very satisfying dish. Think you will like it."

I saw the picture in an ad just this AM and wanted to create. I was so happy to see you had already done that. We loved it and I will be moving it to our Tried & True file. I used a whole red pepper and a whole green pepper because we love them and probably more mushrooms. The only thing I added was some red pepper flakes just becauses we like a little spice. Thanks for posting.

We enjoyed this very flavorful dish. I served this with recipe #64446 and a salad. I've never had it a Macaroni Grill, but it sure tasted good at home. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
