You’re right, Chris, it would have been overwhelming. This has become a “go to” dish around our house. Quick, easy and even the kids will eat it (I usually add a little extra Ranch to their individual sandwich)

Whoa! If yours is that saucey (just right) with only half of the sauce I can’t imagine how it would be if you had used the full amount, can you? It would be swimming in sauce, lol.
