I truly miss my mom’s cooking!  She could really cook when she wanted too  Her favorite thing was Kraft Dressing and cooking anything and everything it in. So many nights she would just whip up an easy pasta salad, or simple salad recipes, but her favorite was white rice and Italian Dressing Chicken.

I love vinaigrette dessing on my salad, but when it comes to cooking I do love the Italian Dressing!  It’s perfect for summer salad recipes too! Instead of sharing another delicious salad dressing recipe I figured I’d show another great way to use salad dressing NOT for salad

I love quinoa and think it’s pretty bland.  I like to actually cook my quinoa with flavor.  I bought both Kraft Pourables in Ranch and Zesty Italian.  I like ranch for dipping veggies or roasting them in it too!  I figured I’d stick with my mommy memories and used the Zesty Italian!  I added 2 tablespoons of Kraft Italian Dressing to the qunioa cooking water! WOW, yum!

So I figured I’d saute up some veggies and chicken and serve it in a cute way to my family.  We love eating fresh and healthy, but we never lack on flavor that’s for sure!  Hubby was pretty excited to eat his dinner out of an edible cup.  Using food like this makes me so happy  I used the tomato I scooped out to make the cups in the saute and it was so delicious!  I just know you’re going to love this recipe!  It’s a fun way to use dressing instead of pouring it on some lettuce!
