I made those YUMMY Chicken tenders nativetxn posted on the Eating Healthy board and BOY were they GOOD!!!

Michael is a BIG chicken nugget fiend, hey, typical 11yo boy favorite, so this was a BIG thing for him. When I woke up this morning he was in my bed staring me in the face. "Mommy, can we have those chicken tenders for BREAKFAST????

They have made this experience alot easier for BOTH of us!

Thanks, Kath and glo!

Robinrs,

Thanks for the good report. I thought the recipe sounded great (got it off of this board) and bought all the stuff. I'm going to make them this weekend. I'm glad to know your son liked them. I have 3 DC and I'm hoping they like them, too.

Onward & Downward,

Lissa

Oh yes, I agree, Robin!! Those Tenders are awesome!! I have made them a couple of times and they are always a big hit here too!!

Just got back from the store to buy more chicken!

Michael could just about LIVE off chicken tenders, this alone makes him feel better about being on the diet.

We also did the Monterey Cheese Crisps which REALLY bowled him over! Not only are these tasty and easy, they're inexpensive to make!

I enjoy experimenting with new recipies, even though my kitchen is STILL trying to figure out WHO I am! Michael and I used to eat out alot, which was alot of our problem,now it's time for Mommy to learn how to cook!

Thanks Robin,

I have to give these a try. We have got some boneless chicken breasts in the freezer that I'll be making on Sunday and this recipe sounds yummy so now I've got Sunday dinner.

I know what you mean about using your kitchen more. I think my George Foreman grill is about to go on strike from over use! I just love cooking now! I told my DH that the local pizza place will probably put out an APB on us because we used to order pizza at least twice a week and they haven't seen us in quite a while! I should stop in there and ask them when are they coming out with a pizza made on a whole wheat crust.

I know about the pizza thing, Lisa, I had Pizza Hut on SPEED DIAL!

I think my delivery guy will have to go on assistance without my tips every week!

They knew my voice and my favorites... now you KNOW that's bad....

As for George, I have TWO GF grills and use BOTH!

I have a recipe for a "mock" honey mustard sause that is great for the chicken tenders. You will need to adjust the amounts to feed more people but it is very good and everyone that has tried it has loved it. It is on the recipe board also.

About once every two months my husband will order a meat lover's pizza and just eat the toppings. It's an endulgence for him as it is more than his allowance of cheese but sometimes he's just dying for the taste of pizza and eating the toppings only satisfy this need. We throw the crust away

Robin, I was thinking that next time I make those tenders I will cut them into smaller pieces before I bread and fry them, so that they look more like "nuggets".

I'm so glad Michael liked this dish. It isn't all that hard to make, either. You will be an Atkins gourmet cook before you know it, Robin, just you wait and see
