PERFORMANCE RATING: 6/5The Kid Kritics gobbled this up. Really – vegetables and all. This Ranch Dressing’s flavors and texture are so appealing that you should consider coating a variety of vegetables with it. The quick chicken trick is to go to the deli, ask for a one or two inch slice of an additive free chicken, take it home and cut it into little chunks. Now you have a quick ready meal-in-one for your family.
Needless to say, a 6/5 Performance Rating means your kids will be powered up with the recipe. Make a lot for lunch box leftovers and snacks. This recipe is an answered prayer for busy moms and dads. Your kids will be well feed and leave the table smiling!
