Make It

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Substitute your family's favorite frozen vegetable medley for the peas.

How to Easily Cut Chicken

Cutting boneless skinless chicken breasts into pieces can be a slippery task. Make it safer and prevent the knife from slipping by cutting the chicken while it is partially frozen. The firmer chicken is much easier to cut and handle.

Very unique taste. Next time I will make it with peas and carrots for more color and flavor. I used a whole 16 oz. bag of veggies and made my macaroni and cheese from scratch. Will make this again.

my fiance really liked this recipe. i've never had catalina dressing before, it was a good touch. the only thing i would do different is use another type mac and cheese. this one was very thick and i didnt care for the taste of it. we will definatly make this again.!

Kids and husband liked it more than I. Not bad, but could have used more flavor.

Very Yummy! I made this for a lunch and even my picky 4 year old loved it. The dressing really adds something nice. I did 1/2 cup corn, 1/2 cup Peas. That was not over powering at all, just the right mix and amount. I will make this again.

I added broccoli instead of the peas, as well, and it was delicious. I have picky eaters, and they all loved it!

Instead of peas, I added brocolli florets. Very Good!

It was good and easy to make. Next time a little bit less peas. It kinda over-powered the whole thing. Other than that it was pretty good.

Yummy to my tummy! This is very easy to make. Very good, but going to use at least 1/2 cup instead of 2 cups frozen peas. Tasted more peas than the rest of the ingredients. Overall, best inredient was the Catalina dressing, whoo!

You have to like peas for this dish. Everything tasted okay.. but its not something to write home about.
