Thanks Tony. Sometimes I wonder if I should post the recipe's on here because they aren't always 100% the way it should be. I do post the ones that I think help people stick with the program because the food tastes good and is "okay" with the program.
Dayna did give me the inspiration for the chicken strips, I just added the parmesan crust recipe.
Check out my other recipe.... Zucchini Pie

Mike...shhhh we eat a little peanut butter every now and again....yeah I know we need a spanking! lol...lol...

I think I would really like that zucchini pie, but not sure that Tony would. BUT THEN again HE DIDN'T LIKE TURNIPS before Medifast either! hehehe...

I will make it and let you know what I think!

Well, I know how much he love's cooked veggies... lol. They aren't my favorite either, but I like this stuff, its the spices and the cheese that help it out. I am sure it tastes better with the biscuits in the bottom for a bit of a bread crust, but hey, I am sure it will taste fine. Happy cooking.
I'm thinking of doing it on Monday..tomorrow we are out and about most of the day.

I'd like to try this recipe with veggies like zucchini and fresh stringbeans. Maybe green tomatoes and eggplant, too. Viola! Lean & Green.

Oh, and I just looked up the nutrition on chicken thigh meat. The fat content is about 5% of the total caloric value. The lean beef (from the same online source) is anywhere from 2.5% to 15% (yes, proported lean cuts). Chicken breasts, however, weigh in at 2%. The trade off is that Mike can reliably keep thigh meat down. This isn't true for white meat. Consequently, it's a reasonable trade for our household.

Di, I think that anything with a 5% fat content should be eating everyday! lol...good research, I'm glad to know that. Does the same go for Turkey you think?

Turkey seems to weigh in at about 3% according to the site (calorie-count dot com)

That's an average, though, for the whole turkey. I wouldn't be surprised to find the numbers about equal to chicken. (I just looked up the whole turkey, not the different cuts.)

I am going to try this and the use any left over " crust crumbs" on my eggplant and zuchinni slices.

Gonna add some jalapeno peppers to crust like supermom did. Yuh-um

Thanks, ChefboyMikey!

oops. I guess I should've checked the forum before I posted my recipe.

Well, I don't always go back and see if someone else has one on here either. Who knows what is posted on page 1? I'm thinking I want these again though. I like the cayenne pepper idea (reminds me of KFC extra crispy).
