My Secret to Fancy Dinners at Home! #cbias #FreshTakes
I'll admit that I love to cook dinner for my family. I love being able to control the ingredients and save us money. But sometimes I just would like to go out to eat and have some one else do all the cooking and clean up. But then I remember…oh ya, I have a 2-year old! She's a crazy little ball of energy that leaves a path of destruction where ever she goes! Going out to eat as a family just isn't that much fun.
During my last shopping trip to Walmart I was trying to find something to make for Saturday night dinner. My favorite thing to get when we go to restaurant is Chicken Parmesan and I've been craving it. Then in the cheese department I saw this new meal kit from Kraft called Fresh Takes. Kraft Fresh Take is a meal kit that provides you with a fresh take on any meal. The cheese and breadcrumb mix gives you flavorful, crisp and cheesy dishes with easy preparation.I saw six different varieties, each one had different flavor bread crumbs pair with cheese to make fancy meals quick and easy! Just what I was looking for!
I grabbed the Rosemary and Roasted Garlic kind (I love garlic!). I also grabbed everything else I needed to make my fancy Saturday night dinner. Here's my whole shopping trip!
As you can see the list of ingredients is pretty little. I got Kraft Fresh Take Cheese and Breadcrumb mix, pasta, pasta sauce and some prosciutto ( I wrapped this around the chicken for added fanciness!)
One thing that I love about this meal is how easy it is to prepare, especially with Fresh Takes! I can prepare it earlier in the day…say when the kiddos are down for a nap…and then later put it in the oven.
Saturday night dinner was a success and there wasn't much clean up either….and that makes this Mama happy! This was my first time using the Kraft Fresh Take Cheese and Breadcrumb Mix, but I really liked it so I'm already planning my next fancy meal with another flavor…maybe I'll try stuffed mushrooms or meatballs! There are so many possibilities!
As you can see from the mess all over her face dinner was a success!
Chicken Parmesan with Kraft Fresh Take
Ingredients
- Kraft Fresh Take Cheese and Breadcrumb Mix in Rosemary and Roaster Garlic
- 1 box of Penne Pasta (that's my favorite, but you can use whichever you like)
- 1 jar of Pasta Sauce
- 3 Large Chicken Breasts
- 1 package of prosciutto ( you use bacon if you want) You will need 6 pieces
Instructions
- Start preparing the pasta so that it can be boiling while you prepare the chicken. Cook it according to the directions.
- Take 3 chicken breasts and trim off an excuse fat. Slice them down the middle length wise. This will make them thinner and they will cook faster.
- Open the Fresh Take bag and mix the breadcrumbs and cheese together. Take turns putting the chicken in one piece at a time and coating with bread crumbs.
- Wrap each piece of chicken with a slice of Proscuitto
- With the pasta is done drain it and mix it with the pasta sauce. Put it in a 13x9 pan. Gently place the wrapped chicken breasts on top of the pasta.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until chicken is done.
- Enjoy!
