Oh wow! That looks great. The flavors seem like they would all mix so well.


Wow, this is bursting with great flavor!


It looks and sounds delicious, I can't wait to try it.


That looks great, Donnie - and your pictures are making me hungry. I love all the ingredients here and I love Rotel. What a great way to dress up bottled sauce - great job! =)


This looks great. Italian with flavor. Not much better than that


YUM!! I cooked this last night for dinner and it was wonderful!! Everyone loved it!! Thank you!


These kinds of dishes with pasta and sauce are my absolute favorites. Sounds delicious and can't wait to try it.


Sounds great! I'll have to try this! (Minus the mushrooms...since my husband can't stand them lol). But looks wonderful! :)


Think one of my friends in Iowa will love this dish as she loves spicy food.
