What do you use it with/for. I am giving it as an auction item for a quarter auction and I want a good description for it. THanks in advanced :)
 
The most obvious one is to make a stir fry. Just cook chicken, add some frozen stir fry veggies, and pour over. Great on top of rice.

Also, tastes really good over lil smokies
 
If you have the DCB cookbook you can include the recipe that calls for this. Cannot remember the name but it had lasagna noodles in it.
 
When I do quarter auctions I used the description in the book
 
what is a quarter auction?

The one I am doing is a fundraiser. There are 6-10 vendors (depending on space and amount of people expected to come) and we all have our tables set up and donate 2 items, ranging from $0-$24 and $25- $50. People that come to the auction by numbered auction paddles fro $3, and can buy as many as they want, and then they buy lots of quarters for the auction. During the auction the $24 and less items are 1 quarter bids, the over $25 are 2 quarter bids. When an item comes up for bid those who want the item raise up their paddles (just one or all of them), they then put either 1 or 2quarters in the basket for each paddle they raise. Then the auctionier picka number from a bin and whoever has that paddle number (if it was raised) wins the item. The vendor then gets however many quarters were put into the basket for that item from all the bidders. The organization for the fundraiser gets all the paddle sales and whatever us vendors want to donate from sales.
