Feed The Kids – EASILY

Now that summer has arrived, it seems that our Kid Approved Meals E-book is flying out the door.  If  you happen to have kids home during the lunch hour, it might be worth taking a look at.  For $14.95 you can save yourself some sanity in the kitchen.  Here are a couple recipes out of the book:

Granola Bars Recipe
 
4 cups quick cook oatmeal, unprepared
¾ cup chocolate chips
¾ cup grated coconut
¾ cup chopped nuts/dried fruit
¾ cup honey
¾ cup peanut butter
milk as needed

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl, adding small amounts of milk until the dough begins to stick together. Press mix into well greased large baking pan that has a ½ inch lip on the edge. Bake at 325◦ F for 40-45 minutes or until the edges just start to brown. Cut into desired size bars while still hot but do not remove from pan until completely cool.
 
Chocolate chips, coconut and chopped nuts/dried fruit may be taken out and replaced with other ingredients of your choice. Also, if there is a peanut allergy, the peanut butter may be omitted and the honey doubled.

Super Simple Chicken Fingers (or nuggets)
  
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast per serving
1 egg, beaten
flour
crushed cornflakes, bread crumbs, chips (whatever you have on hand)
 
Cut chicken into strips or cubes. Roll in flour to coat. Dip in egg and then roll in crumbs. Spread evenly on baking sheet and bake at 450° F until juices run clear. These can also be fried in oil if you prefer but baking is much healthier. (Cooking time will vary depending on how thick your cubes or strips are)

Enjoy!
