Hi!
This is a great recipe, I haven’t tried it yet, but I’ve been looking for one. Thanks!
I do have a couple of questions!
1) How many people would this recipe serve?
2) What does cooked pulled chicken mean? I’m thinking boiled and then shredded apart, but I think when I eat this meal at Macaroni Grill, the chicken is grilled or something special! HELP! Thanks!
I plan on making this recipe this upcoming Saturday night to see if it’s good, then I’ll make a large amount of it for 30 people at my daughter’s baptism the following weekend. Let me know if you have answers to my questions! Thanks, I’ll be checking my e-mail! ENJOY YOUR EATS!

I LOVE this pasta and I can’t wait to try this recipe. Thanks!

i love this dish, i have not cooked it ye. but when i go 2 the macaronni grill, i always have it.

I can not wait to cook this recipe! Could you tell me approximately how many adults this will feed? Thanks!

I tried this recipe and it is great!! It is even better than Macaroni Grill’s because it doesn’t have quite as much garlic. It is absolutely delicious. I also tried a copycat recipe for their bread…couldn’t tell the difference except in the pocketbook!! Thanks.

Yeah I think this recipe is pretty good, I like macaroni grill. Although macaroni itself isn’t all that great…nor is it when its grilled.
- Take care.
The great Pealo ( ._. )

Seems like this recipe is enough for just one person.
