Chicken Tenders

Prep Time - 10-15 min         Cook Time - 10-12 min                Add to MyFitnessPal
 
For those of you without any love for coconut, put your prejudice aside and give these a try - the roasting essentially eliminates the coconutty flavor and lends these tenders a spendidly breaded texture & flavor. Don't use coconut flakes or chop them to powder, but a shredded coconut with grain sizes similar to dry rice are about perfect here. Give them a try with your favorite low sugar sauce (they're particularly good with Blackberry Barbecue Sauce) and see if you can't stop making these.

Blackberry Barbecue Sauce

Prep Time - 2-3 minutes           Cook Time - 0 minutes            Add to MyFitnessPal
 
Although I prefer this with 1/4 c of honey rather than the stevia when using on the grill, this certainly gets the job done as a dipping sauce. Turns out  we use a LOT less when we brush it on before grilling, and eat a lot more of the stuff when dipping. Thus, I give you, the dipping "go wild" version of this tasty barbecue sauce.

Tofu Madras Curry

For those of you who don't like tofu, think it flavorless or without any real worth - you've never had good tofu! This recipe is more work than most I'll be posting, but is perfect for the vegan in your home and still absolutely delightful. The final step may sound vile, but trust me, this is the best use of unflavored protein powder I've ever found - who knew there was a way to sub protein powder for coconut milk flawlessly? Although this recipe takes a little longer, it's well worth every moment! I'll also post a 'shortcut' version in a little later this afternoon for those of you who aren't keen on spending this much time in the kitchen.
