I have a co-worker who is leaving the company. Her last week is the last week of june. We are planning a going away lunch for her and all the staff will bring a dish to share for the lunch. My co-worker has been on South Beach for about 6 weeks and is doing great!!!! She has lost 34 lbs!! Mind you she is still over 300lbs at this point but I am sooo proud of her. I don’t want her to mess up her diet so I want to make sure there is a South beach friendly dish or 2 at her party!!!
So who has some good recipes to share with me so I can make this a plan friendly send off for her.
 
I've got a great buffalo chicken strips and homemade creamy cole slaw dish that I make for parties and everyone eats it up. I'm always amazed that with all the pizza, fried chicken wings, spaghetti and other carby food, my chicken and cole slaw is always the first to be devoured.

Buffalo chicken strips:
4 nice sized chicken breasts cut into long strips
2 eggs
1/2 cup 1% milk
parmesean cheese
1 cup of canola oil
seaonings (salt, pepper, seasoning salt, garlic powder, etc.)
1/2 bottle of Hot Sauce
1/2 stick of I can't believe it's not butter or another butter substitute

I mix the egss and milk together and then soak the chicken strips in it

Mix seasonings into parmesean cheese and coat each chicken strip thoroughly

Fry each chicken strip in the oil in a frying pan on the stove for about 5 minutes on each side

Meanwhile melt the butter in a small sauce pan and then pour in a large bowl, add the hot sauce and mix thoroughly

Remove chicken from pan and blot any excess oil

Soak each chicken strip in the hot sauce butter mixture until well coated

Place the strips on a foil lined cookie sheet and bake in oven on 375 for 10-15 minutes

Remove from oven and they are ready to serve

I then take a bag prewashed cole slaw and mix in light miracle whip and 1-3 tablespoons of Splenda (sugar substitute)

I have a large glass serving platter with a round section in the middle and I put the cole slaw in the middle and arrange the buffalo strips around it. Everyone always raves about how good this is!

I hope this helps you out and you are so sweet to be sensitive to your coworkers way of eating. Congrats to her for losing 34 pounds. That is truly awesome!!!
