I saw this recipe on Facebook and had to try it. It was super easy to make, made a tone and everyone loved it. I had tons of leftovers to take to work the next day and everyone wanted the recipe who tried it. I was worried about the dressing overpowering the entire dish so I tweaked it for my taste.
- Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
