Baked Chicken Breast Strips w/ Loaded Potato Casserole and Sliced Carrots

Dinner Tonight: Baked Chicken Breast Strips w/  Loaded Potato Casserole and Sliced Carrots





Started off with a Breakfast of 1 toasted slice of Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Bread, topped with an
Egg Beater's Scrambled Egg Whites, and 2 Jennie - O Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links. Also my morning cup of Bigelow decaf Green Tea. So after that did some laundry for Mom. Then outside to clean up a lot of leaves. Everything done for the day and hit the easy chair with remote in hand for some College Football. For dinner tonight its Baked Chicken Breast Strips w/  Loaded Potato Casserole and Sliced Carrots.
 





I wanted something easy to prepare for dinner tonight, easy but still delicious! Nothing easier and

more delicious than Pilgrim’s Southern Style Breast Strips, it’s always a great go to when you want that easy to prepare meal! It’s the best Frozen Chicken that I’ve found by far. Very easy to prepare; Preheat oven to 350° F. Arrange frozen chicken breast strips in a single layer on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes, to an internal temperature of 165° F as measured by use of a food thermometer placed in the thickest part of the chicken breast fritter. And Chicken is served! As I said it’s some of the best frozen Chicken you can find! Excellent seasoned breading and very meaty, and easy to prepare. Served it with a side of JB’s Fat Boy Sticky Stuff BBQ Sauce.





For one side dish I prepared a box of Idahoan Loaded Potato Homestyle Casserole. I love all the Idahoan Potato Products. A very quick and easy way to prepare some delicious piping hot Potato Dishes. I also heated up a can of Del Monte Sliced Carrots. Had a bottle of Peach Diet Snapple to drink. For dessert later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
