We had to force ourselves not to eat it all so we could save some for lunch the next day.

FOUND THIS TO BE QUICK & TASTEY. THOUGHT THE CREAM CHEESE ADDED A VERY GREAT CREAMY TEXTURE, AND THE SALAD DRESSING ADDED A DELIGHTFUL FLAVOR.

I loved this. The dressing really added a great flavor and the flavors melded so well.

Not very good, I didn't like the spinach with it, and I love spinach.

Yumm! When I cooked the chicken, I added some crushed garlic and juice of half a lemon. I also used the whole can of chicken broth. It was so good, everyone requested it again!
