My friend Melissa made this fabulous dish the other night and since it was far better than my recipe, I had to have it. This is great football TV watching fare or easy dinner. Kraft has come out with some new Cream Cheeses designed for cooking. I used their Santa Fe Blend and it really added some nice flavor to the dish.
