Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Don't have fresh garlic? You can use 1/2 tsp. garlic powder instead.

How to Easily Chop Basil

Leaves of basil are stacked, rolled lengthwise into a "cigar," then finely sliced into strips or ribbons. This term is known as "chiffonade." It's a quick and easy way to chop basil leaves.

This recipe is great for a busy night! Very quick to prepare and delicious! The fresh basil is essential, as it adds such great taste that definitely wouldn't compare if dried basil was used instead.

It was good with a side of crescent rolls. Will make it again altho I kind of needed it to have a little sauce or something. Tomatoes made it really good though!

This dish is very good. I love it because it is quick and easy. I did not put the basil in because my family does not like it. I also added a little more cheese than the recipe calls for.

Wonderful!! I added a little bit of Alfredo sauce at the end to make it just a tad bit creamier!!
