How to eat your Healthy Chicken Tenders…

By themselves! 🙂  (Jackson approves)

With a dip:  Some good fat loss friendly dips you can use to dunk your chicken in are spicy mustard, buffalo or hot sauce, homemade ketchup, Walden Farms sugar free BBQ sauces, or Coach Blair’s Ranch Dip.

On a salad:  load up on fibrous veggies with a big mixing bowl salad (yes, we go big around here!) and top it off with your sliced chicken tenders!

ENJOY! 🙂
