Bistro Chicken And Tomato Rolls Recipe Video

Hi Everyone! I host a little internet show called "2 for 10 (with Melissa)". ALL of my recipes follow the same three rules: Dinner for 2, it must cost less than $10, and it has to be prepared in 20 minutes or less. Look, I have a full-time job, and I just don't have the time to cook big meals. But I'm sick of Take-Out, and I refuse fast food. That's where the 2 for 10 method comes in! Enjoy!
