Quick, convenient and easy to take on the go or simply sit down and enjoy dinner.  In fact, make them for lunch or dinner or eat them as an appetizer or a snack. Making them the perfect to-go food or as they say in Europe take away food.

Our lives have become so busy that we look for quick and easy recipes we can make and even take with us when the need arises. We are so busy with work, classes, and activities that we don’t even notice how fast our lives are going. In the blink of an eye, your child is an adult. You no longer need to chauffeur them to lessons, parties, or games. To put it briefly, we no longer get to see them every day.

Hence, we all need to consciously make sure we are taking in every moment every breath. So that in old age we can honestly say we remember it, we relished the laughter, tears and hard work. Not to mention, that our children are on loan to us. At any rate, it is but a few short years.  To summarize, hug your family. Make memories that last a lifetime.

My Thoughts:

Consequently, the world is full of negative stories and the worst of what humanity has to offer. In order to try my small part to improve negativity. It is for this reason that I highly encourage all my readers to do Random Acts of Kindness. Perhaps we can even get a small wave going and encourage others to join us.

Gluten-Free Chicken Strips:

Toward that end, this recipe should help the busy overloaded mom, dad, or caretaker provide a healthy meal in minutes. Believe it or not, there is no flour in this recipe. It is simply desiccated coconut. What is desiccated coconut?

Desiccated simply means to have all the water removed dried out. Therefore, it is just plain dried coconut with no sugar. In fact, this recipe contains no sugar and is oven-baked thereby making it healthier for you.

Incidentally, Desiccated Coconut, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Smoked Paprika, Pink Salt, Chipotle Pepper, Cholula, Coconut Oil Spray can be found on Amazon along with these other ingredients.

Nonetheless, these go really well with Dairy-Free Coleslaw and Orange Mustard Horsey Sauce.
