I feel like chicken tonight! Like chicken tonight!
I made dinner tonight! (And unfortunately only have cameraphone pictures to show for it).
There’s just something about spring that apparently makes me want to cook. I’m not sure what it is, but when the weather starts to change I find myself searching recipes online a little more and experimenting with recipes I’ve never tried before: “healthified” chicken nuggets and sweet potato fries.
Both recipes turned out pretty well, but I especially loved the sweet potato fries. While they did tend more towards the mushy side, they were still delicious a perfect side for out meal, especially considering I’m watching my calories for a weight loss contest at my work.
The chicken nuggets were yummy as well, but I don’t think they’re going to become a staple of my cooking skills. I used corn flakes instead of Wheaties (I’m just not a Wheaties gal). The corn flakes gave the chicken nuggets a great crunch, but it also made me feel a little like I was eating breakfast with my nuggets. Not the taste I was really going for. 
It made hubby excited to see dinner made for him when he got home from work!
