So happy to host all of you back at the Taylor house for March Madness!
Whoopee! I took it upon myself to search far and wide for some unusual, kid-friendly items to add to our everyday menus. Little did I realize that this would not be such an easy task! The more interesting the menu items became, the less I thought the kids would partake.
Soooo, here you go! Hopefully we will each find a gold star recipe that will stand the test of time in our homes. See you Thursday.... Hugs!

Crunchy Chicken
Nuggets
Cut chicken in bite size pieces or chicken strips.
Prepare 4 small bowls with these four, separate ingredients.
1st bowl- 1/3 cup Grey Poupon Mustard
2nd bowl- 3/4 cup Plain Panko Crumbs
3rd bowl- 1 egg whipped with 2 tbsp of milk
4th bowl- 1 cup Finely crushed Lays Sour Cream Potato Chips
Now dip chicken in 1, 2, 3, 4th bowl covering
completely each time.
Heat peanut oil in frying pan. (You can substitute vegetable oil if necessary.) Be careful that it is only
half maximum heat or chicken will be over done on outside before having a chance
to cook thoroughly.
Prepare all chicken before frying. (You can choose to freeze chicken at this point then fry
from a frozen state if you prefer.)
Serve immediately

Tips & Notes
This recipe may take longer to bake, depending upon the type of baking dish and oven used. The frosting can be runny because of the strawberry juice. You may need to add more berries or powdered sugar to get the frosting to the right consistency.
Mix all ingredients and pour into greased 9x13 pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, make the icing.
Mix together all icing ingredients until smooth – may need to add more powdered sugar or strawberries for a spreading consistency. Mix well first before you add extra sugar or strawberries.
Once the cake is cool, spread the icing on the cake.
Store the cake in refrigerator; it's best when it's chilled for at least 2 hours.
