Kraft Foods Goodies #BlogEats

Visiting the Kraft Kitchens last week gave us the opportunity to eat some amazing recipes, traditional favorites, and unique creations thanks to the executive chefs. Not to mention they sent a very yummy goodie box to us on our return home, some of our favorites:

CHIPS AHOY!
Chips Ahoy! Chewy Gooey cookies are even more deliciously fun because they’re filed with smooth, creamy fudge right in the middle of every cookie. Heat them up in the microwave for 10 seconds or straight out of the bag. These were gone in record time after school the day they arrived. I need to hide those!

CLAUSSEN Pickles
Claussen Pickles go from the vine to jar in eight days and are kept chilled, never heated, to deliver the crunch and fresh taste you have come to expect from Claussen. Fresher pickles taste better – that’s why you’ll only find Claussen Pickles in your grocer’s chilled section. I love a pickle on the side with my sandwiches, not in it, but on the side, same for my hamburgers, the salt and vinegar tang just hits the spot!

CRYSTAL LIGHT
Crystal Light gives you all the flavor you want without all the calories! Crystal Light Mocktails will be launched permanently on shelf in 2012 in three delicious flavors: Margarita, Mojito, Appletini. Oh so good!

KRAFT SIZZLING SALADS
Beginning in Q1 of 2012 Kraft Sizzling Salads will be available in the following varieties: Caesar Chicken Dinner Kit (Cracked Black Pepper cooking sauce and Classic Caesar dressing). Southwest Chicken Dinner Kit (Zesty Fajita cooking sauce and Barbecue Ranch dressing), Tuscan Chicken Dinner Kit (Pesto cooking sauce and Sweet Roasted Garlic Balsamic dressing), and Asian Chicken Dinner Kit (Teriyaki Ginger cooking sauce and Toasted Sesame dressing). Perfectly paired cooking sauces and dressings that work together to bring you chicken and salad to life. We tried the southwest kit during our conference and it was tasty! Serve them separate for a great dinner or cube the chicken for a great potluck chicken salad. Yum!

OSCAR MAYER Carving Board
Oscar Mayer Carving Board is a line of slow roasted and carved meats for a taste of the holidays anytime you want. Oscar Mayer Carving Board is available in Applewood Smoked Turkey Breast, Oven Roasted Turkey Breast, Slow Cooked Ham, Rotisserie Seasoned Chicken Breast, and Slow Roasted Roast Beef. My kids will eat nothing but for their school lunches!

VELVEETA Cheesy Skillets
VELVEETA Cheesy Skillets is a dinner kit (with multiple flavor pouches and creamy Velveeta cheese sauce) that is an easy way for moms to make a delicious homemade meal with just one pound of chicken or beef, and her skillet. VELVEETA Cheesy Skillets is a dinner kit mom can feel good about serving because it combines her family’s favorite recipes with the great taste of Velveeta cheese. Just add ground beef or chicken and in less than 20 minutes you’ll have a dish that the entire family will love. Another great product we made in the Kraft Kitchens, quick and easy tasty meal!

Wheat Thins
My 3 kids can eat a box of Wheat Thins in one sitting. In your box of goodies, like ours, you’ll get some new flavors, the Smoky BBQ are yummy to mom and dad’s palates, the kids prefer the sweet Cinnamon Wheat Thins that is only available through 12/31/11. I rarely say no to “can I have some wheat thins?” during the day!
