Omelets and hashbrowns were on the original meal plan for tonight, but along with the rest of the weeks plan, that didn't happen! We ended up having that last night. Tonight we had Seasoned Oven-Fried Chicken Fingers with homemade mashed potatoes and green beans.
I have tried many, many recipes for Oven-Fried Chicken, and all of them haven't been what I was looking for. They usually turn out dry, with no flavor. This recipe however, has been the best one I've ever had. The breading gets crispy and has flavor, and the chicken always stays so juicy!
Seasoned Chicken Strips Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 25 min.
1/3 cup egg substitute

We've all seen how bad I'm doing when it comes to sticking to my meal plan this week. How is everyone else doing on theirs?
