Chicken Tenders Salad? The kids will love this one... getting them to eat their veggies is easy as 1, 2, 3.

What You'll Need

1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 pound chicken tenders
3 tablespoons fat-free egg substitute
1/3 cup fat-free milk
1 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons sesame seeds
Cooking spray
1 (10-ounce) package romaine lettuce, torn
2 large tomatoes, cut into wedges
1/4 cup (1 ounce) shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

What to Do

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine flour and pepper in a large resealable plastic freezer bag. Add chicken tenders; seal bag, and shake to coat.
Combine egg substitute and milk in a shallow dish, stirring well. Combine breadcrumbs and sesame seeds in another shallow dish
Dip each chicken tender in egg mixture, and dredge in breadcrumb mixture. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Coat chicken tenders with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until done. Cut chicken diagonally into 1-inch pieces.
Place 1/2 cup lettuce on each of 4 plates. Divide chicken and tomatoes evenly among plates. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon cheese. Serve with reduced-fat salad dressing.

Notes

Make extra chicken tenders for the kids if salad isn't their thing. These tenders are oh-so-good just by themselves! Don't forget the light honey-mustard or ranch dressing for dipping.

The chicken tenders tasted just fine, but I didn't do the lettuce and tomatoes, yuck, that won't get any kids or husband to eat better, I assure you of that. Stick to the chicken, and you will be ok.

great salad. there was not a measurement for flour, so just winged it. put in a baggy 1 cup of bleached flour to do the first dusting. it turned out OK.
