No muss, no fuss, no drama… that's how you like your dinners. We know, we understand; sometimes the love of the art of cooking just has to be replaced with “I want something delicious, fast and easy.” Tangy roasted red pepper combines with another distinct tang, tomato, and, with the cream cheese and Parmesan, becomes a restaurant-level sauce you make in less time than it takes to say “I want something delicious, fast and easy.” (Okay, maybe not that fast.)
