Fit & Fresh has come out with some awesome products, called the Gatherings Collection,  that are just perfect for summer picnics, barbecues, and potlucks. I absolutely love them because they are insulated, kind of like a thermos, so your food will stay either hot or cold. And the containers are big! I have the 9 x 13 Insulated Server, and it has been perfect to serve our family of 7 at family gatherings. And it did a great job of keeping our food nice and hot until it was time to eat! If you're curious about these unique serving dishes and  want to try one out for yourself, today is your lucky day! I'm hosting a giveaway that will run from June 23 to July 6.

This huge serving dish is insulated to keep your food hot or cold for picnics, barbecues, or potlucks,. It is so versatile for so many situations - I LOVE mine!

Why I love my Gatherings 9x13 Server:

  • It's HUGE!  So many things are going into this dish - lasagna, Baked Ziti, and many other casseroles. I will be using it soon at a brunch, where I will fill it with gluten free french toast sticks ( that recipe will be coming soon!). It would also be great for cold pasta salads and potato salad - yumm, barbecue season will be even more fun this year!
  • It has a sturdy carrying strap. Have you ever taken a hot dish to a party, where you had to balance it on a towel on your lap in the car ride over? Ugh, I have done that far to many times ( and even burned myself before... not fun)
  • It has a clear lid that snaps tight. Have you ever taken a hot dish to party, balanced on your lap on a towel, topped with a sheet of foil, and as your husband turned a corner some of it slopped over onto your leg? Well ... that's how I burned myself ( see above)
  • It has the added protection of an additional solid colored lid ( it's a pretty aqua color) that also doubles as a base to set the dish on so it won't make the table too hot!
  • The clear, glass baking dish comes out so you can use it as a regular 9 x 13 baking dish. You can never have too many 9 x 13 baking dishes, right?

Versatile, multi-use serving and baking dish that keeps food either hot or cold! I love mine!

One more thing: a recipe! What I served in the photos above is my special Healthy Alfredo Sauce, tossed with gluten free spaghetti, chicken, and grilled veggies.  I hope you'll love it as much as my family does!

This healthy Alfredo Sauce gets its rich, creaminess from low fat cottage cheese! Blend all the ingredients in the blender or food processor and heat it briefly on the stove to thicken. So delicious!
