Grace loves ranch dressing, and Hidden Valley is my particular favorite brand. I was recently poking around the Hidden Valley Ranch website when I found a free cookbook called Original Bites.

It’s still there, so you can hop over and download it, too.

We have tried a few of the recipes in the book, and we loved them. We haven’t tried the following recipe yet, but it is next on our list. I can’t wait!

Cheesy Chicken Ranch Squares

• 1 packet (1 ounce) Hidden Valley Original Ranch® Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix
• 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders, cut into 1” pieces
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 8-ounce tubes (8-count each) refrigerated crescent rolls
• 1/4 pound (6 to 8 slices) Muenster cheese, sliced *I don’t like Muenster, so I would use cheddar or colby jack instead.
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach, loosely packed (2 ounces)
• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 egg yolk, beaten

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Lightly coat a 13” x 9” glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
3. In a medium bowl, combine Ranch mix and chicken, stirring to coat. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken and cook, stirring frequently, until no longer pink, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside until needed.
4. Unroll one tube of crescent rolls in the baking dish. Firmly pinch together perforations and pat dough as necessary to fit bottom of dish. Place sliced cheese, covering all dough.
5. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken evenly over cheese. Layer spinach evenly over chicken.
6. In medium bowl, beat 3 eggs, Parmesan cheese and pepper. Pour evenly over layers.
7. Unroll second tube of crescent rolls over the top of layered ingredients. Press perforations to seal and stretch to fit. Brush beaten egg yolk over dough. Cover with foil.
8. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue cooking an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut into squares. Serve warm.
