sorry If I am posting this in the wrong place. I didn't know if the recipie folder was just for sharing recipies, or requesting them also.


I would like to make Mac and cheese for my family as a side dish with our porkchops tonight.


I have done a search but can't find a recipie.


thanks.

Thanks. I didn't get this in time for dinner last night and my mac and cheese was a disaster!! It was lumpy and grainy YUK! Everybody hated it. I got some great ideas my whole family will love!


Nobody minded the ww noodles, just the cheese sauce was gross.! :P

If your kids like chicken nuggets, you have to try these. I make a BBQ dipping sauce out of sugar-free ketchup and sugar-free BBQ for the kids. I have to make big batches and freeze, then heat them up for all the neighborhood kids when they come over - they all gobble them up!

Chicken Tenders

1/3 cup whole wheat flour
Salt and ground black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch wide strips
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 cup oats
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon onion powder

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.

In a shallow dish, combine flour and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and black pepper.
Place milk in a separate shallow dish.

In a third shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, combine parmesan, oats, garlic powder, onion powder. (I whizz this in the food processor for a few pulses) You can also add any spices you like here - sometimes we add some Italian seasoning, other times some chili powder if we feel like spicy, etc.

Dip chicken into flour and turn to coat.

Dip flour-coated chicken into milk and then transfer chicken to oat mixture.

Turn to coat chicken (or shake bag) until well covered with oat mixture.

Place chicken on prepared baking sheet and spray the top of chicken with cooking spray.

Bake 15 minutes, until crust is golden brown and chicken is cooked through. (I bake, then turn on the broiler for a few minutes to really brown/crisp them and get the coating crunchy)

To freeze, I let them cool completely then lay them out on a baking sheet and freeze. Once they are frozen I pack them up into packages that are the amount I think my kids will eat in one meal. To reheat I just pop them in the oven on a baking sheet.
