mushrooms, bell peppers onions & cheese will already be in there! Ranch sounds oddly good though.

That does look good. Have you ever doubled that recipe? I'm having friends over, so I'll need more than that. I'm making homemade french bread, and want nicer spaghetti that I usually make. lol

Have you tried changing up the sauce?

Maybe make chicken picatta.. OMG. to die for.

i haven't doubled, but i've cut it in half and it turned out the same. It would probably be fine to double.

How much ranch do you put in? I love ranch..hehe

I have a friend who puts different veggies in hers, only way her family will eat them.
Like peas, lima beans, brocolli, carrots or corn, she just picks one.

I tried it with peas and really liked it, even though it's the one vegetable my husband will absolutely not touch lol!

try this.
spagetti salad. even my 9 month old loves this. lol yummy.

Our area is pretty limited on sauce, and I'm definitely not good enough at cooking to attempt to make my own! what's chicken picatta?

Quoting I ♥ Jack & Amelia:" How much ranch do you put in? I love ranch..hehe"

i kinda just squeeze the bottle until it taste the way I like it lol. I do like a "S" shape and the sauce turns a slightly less red color. I dont even know HOW i discovered ranch dressing. Just one day I got ranch dressing in my food and I was like "Holy DAMN this is good."

Quoting Vivian [♥]:" I have a friend who puts different veggies in hers, only way her family will eat them. Like peas, lima ... [snip!] ... one. I tried it with peas and really liked it, even though it's the one vegetable my husband will absolutely not touch lol!"

My friends mom puts summer squash in hers. It's awesome.
