Sickenin' Nuggets

Yuck. That's what I thought after I read my friend's blog and watched her link to the Food Revolution video about nuggets. Check it out @ Mommilyeverafter

Here are some comments I received when I posted this on my Facebook page:

1. "I saw that, disgusting, huh?? We banished all nuggets
2. "OMGoodness...I'm going to be sick!! Any suggestions on what to feed Zack? He'a a picky eater with nut allergies and I've been giving him Mickey Mouse nuggets fro Costco with whole grain breading...thought they were decent..YIKES!!"
3. Food Prude's Reply: "we usually make breaded chicken tenders at home, but for those nights that you really need a quick dinner, try Ian's frozen Organic Nuggets http://www.iansnaturalfoods.com/why_ians.html
   Or Applegate Farms Organic Nuggets http://www.applegatefarms.com/Products/ProductDetail.aspx?id=402
   
   They both claim to use NO byproducts, only pure white meat from organic chickens. They can be found at Sprouts, Market Street and Whole Foods. Occasionally you can find Ian's at Target. I know they are not as cheap as buying in bulk at Costco, but they are really good and make a great last minute meal.
   
   I know he's a little young, but you might try getting Zach involved in making your own breaded chicken tenders. Kate loves to help dip them in the wet mixture and then the dry breading mixture and putting them on the cookie sheet. My kids are more likely to eat it if they helped make it, I guess it's fun to them. I hope that helps,
