Parmesan Garlic Crusted Chicken Strips

  Parmesan Garlic Crusted Chicken Strips – gluten free

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, mayonnaise, lemon juice, water, and minced garlic then sit it aside.

Put your oats in a blender and blend until it is a powder. In another bowl, combine oat powder, both Parmesan cheeses, pepper, salt, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.

Bang chicken breasts/strips down to about 1/4-1/2 inch thick.  Pat dry.

Take each breast/strip and coat both sides in the dry mixture, then dunk in egg mixture, then back into dry mixture on both sides again.

Place onto a thoroughly greased (I used coconut oil for this) cookie sheet or tin pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 40 min or until golden brown and thoroughly cooked through.  I like to serve with marinara sauce.

Generously butter one side of a slice of bread, place butter side down in skillet over med-low heat.  Layer mozzarella to cover slice, place tomatoes on top of mozzarella, sprinkle Italian seasoning on top of tomatoes. Top with generously buttered bread, butter side up.  Cook in skillet until side down is golden brown, flip and cook until other side just as golden 😉 viola!

Serve with my Seasoned Tomato Soup from Sauce for an excellent meal!

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to med-low and simmer for about 10-20 min.  I just simmer the whole time I am making Grilled Italian Mozzarella and Tomato Sandwiches and it works out great.

Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup (GF)

     Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

  • 1 cup thickly shredded carrots
  • 4 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 c broth from cooking your chicken
  • 2 T Italian seasoning
  • 2 t minced onion
  • 1 t chives
  • 1/2 t garlic powder

Combine all ingredients (excluding chicken and noodles) in crock pot and turn on high while you cook your chicken.  While chicken is cooling, prepare your noodles.  Add chicken, broth and noodles to crock pot and cook on high for approx. 2 hours or until flavors are well incorporated and veggies are tender.

Healthier Seasoned Sausage Balls

  Seasoned Sausage Balls (HGN Style)

  • 5 cups of my Quick Mix Baking Mix
  • 2 1/2 lbs sausage (you can use beef, pork, turkey or chicken; I used all natural pork here)
  • 3 cups shredded raw cheddar cheese
  • 1 t minced onion
  • 2 t Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 t garlic powder
  • 1/4 t turmeric

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly until all ingredients are incorporated entirely and it is all sticking together…. yes, this will require your hands so remove your jewelry and scrub up ;).  Pinch off enough to roll into 1-1 1/2 inch balls and place on cookie sheet.  Bake in 350º oven for 20 minutes or until cooked thoroughly and a nice browning has taken place.  Yields approximately 85-90 sausage balls, so adjust recipe to the size you need or freeze the extra for quick breakfasts or snacks. My kids like them with ranch dressing, my bbq (you can buy that here) or maple syrup, I like them plain. ENJOY!
