Super Bowl Sunday is almost here! Who will you be rooting for? Regardless of who is playing, I’m always cheering for good food! One item that will definitely be on my football party supply list is Naturally Fresh Salad Dressing. Naturally Fresh offers a variety of salad dressings, dips, and other products. A couple of my favorites include their Classic Ranch and Bleu Cheese (also available in Lite versions). Naturally Fresh puts real, wholesome ingredients in their products; for instance, their Bleu Cheese dressing includes real chunks of aged bleu cheese and buttermilk, along with real herbs and spices. And you’ll definitely taste the difference!
Apart from using natural and fresh ingredients, the brand sets themselves about from others by not using artificial flavors, flavor enhancers, colors, thickeners, preservatives, or MSG. As such, you’ll find their product not with other dressings and condiments, but in the refrigerated section, alongside the produce.
Naturally Fresh salad dressings are awesome on top of your favorite salad, but today we’re thinking outside the salad bowl. The Naturally Fresh website has a lot of great recipes on their website, including salads and main dishes, and they also have an app, which you can reference with your smart phone while you’re in the grocery store.
Personally I love using their ranch and bleu cheese dressings for dipping wings, chicken fingers, and other appetizers. And I also LOVE using them for sandwiches! A couple of weeks ago we made some Chicken Bacon Bleu Cheese Subs, which were a huge hit for football night. Check out this easy-peasy, but oh-so-tasty recipe below!
Ingredients:
12 oz. chicken, cooked and cut in to strips*
6 slices of bacon
4 slices cheddar cheese
2 six inch sub rolls
Naturally Fresh Bleu Cheese Dressing
Directions:
Prepare bacon to desired crispness. Prepare your chicken; cut raw chicken in to strips and cook through on your stove top in a skillet (using a little oil and seasoning as desired). If using the pre-cooked chicken, heat it as directed on the package.
Cut cheese in half to make triangles. Cut the sub bread in half, separating the top from the bottom. Layer the ingredients on the bottom of the rolls, as follows. Place half the cheese slices on the bottom; the place the chicken evenly over the cheese. Place the bacon on top of the chicken (breaking the bacon pieces in half as needed). Cover with the rest of the cheese slices. Place the sandwich bottom, along with your bread top in the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes or until your cheese is melted.
Once your cheese is melted and your chicken and bacon are well heated, add bleu cheese dressing to your sandwich, drizzling it over your sandwich. Then add your bread top and get ready to enjoy!
Notes
*I buy pre-cooked fajita style chicken. You can find this product in plastic containers or pouches. Look for it with the sandwich meat or other meat products. This type of product comes in a few different brands, and you can find both original, as well as Cajun flavors.
Naturally Fresh Salad Dressings are available at Kroger, Publix, and other retailers. Check their website to find a store carrying the product.
