I would probably give this recipe 4.5 stars, but I did make a couple of big changes. First, I used spaghetti/marinara sauce in place of the canned tomatoes. I used a little over 2 cups. I also used Kraft Caesar Vinaigrette instead of Zesty Italian. I increased the amount of dressing to 1/2 cup. I think that the marinara sauce is what makes the sauce better. My boyfriend raved that I had outdone myself like usual and the best thing is that this dish really does take only twenty minutes.

This was yummy and easy! I left out the mushrooms (DH isn't a fan) otherwise made as written. Good, but not memorable...
