Sweet and Sour Mock Chicken

Meal time can get boring. We tend to eat the same meals in our home and rotate those meals through out the month. My husband recently read a magazine article that said the average American family rotates through 6 dinner meals! So I guess we are not the only family that gets stuck in a food rut.

One place that our family loves to visit is a Vegan Asian food restaurant in Seattle. They have so many menu options like sweet and sour chicken, almond chicken, beef & broccoli, and many more. The best part is that they are all Vegan dishes!

We recently were given a bag of vegetarian chicken and my family has been loving eating them with ketchup or BBQ sauce. But when I saw this new product from Kraft – Kraft Recipe Makers, I knew that our vegetarian chicken would be the perfect addition to this exciting product.

Sweet and Sour Mock Chicken {Fast and Easy Method!}

• First, make rice according to the instructions.
• While the rice is cooking cook the chicken and half the Sesame Ginger simmer sauce (included in the box) until chicken is almost done.
• Then add cut bell pepper and onion and the rest of the simmer sauce for about 4 minutes.
• Last add an 8oz can of pineapple chunks and the Sweet & Sour pineapple finishing sauce. – warming together for 1-2 minutes.

Voila! Serve over rice and you have sweet and sour mock chicken in about 15 minutes. It was so fast and easy and my husband and daughter LOVED it just as much as I did.  What I really loved were the ingredients were words I could read. When I think of boxed foods, I think of chemicals and junk. But these Recipe Makers contain two sauces that have real ingredients in them. We can’t wait to try more!
