kraft kitchens tips

Substitute

Any potatoes you've got on hand - even large baking potatoes - can be used in this recipe. The key is cutting them into small uniform pieces so they'll cook evenly in just 20 min.

Creative Leftovers

Peel any leftover garlic cloves; place in blender. Add 1 cup softened butter or margarine; blend well. Use rubber scraper to transfer butter mixture to airtight container. Refrigerate up to 2 weeks. Add to scrambled eggs or use as a topping for your favourite cooked meat or sauteed vegetables.

I made this for Father's Day and it was super easy and a huge hit! However, I ran out of Zesty Italian Dressing so I made it with Kraft Sweet Onion dressing instead. I bet it would probably work really well with other dressing combinations as well since it's such a simple recipe but the Sweet Onion went really well with the bacon.

LOVED IT! I made this for our Canada Day BBQ and my company kept commenting on how good it was. I'm making it for another BBQ coming up as well. Super yummy and easy.

We found it you let it sit for a few minutes covered in foil it has more time for the flavours to blend.....my kids loved them

Very good! I like the fact that it's served warm, although it's not really a salad in my book.
