Cornflake-Crusted Honey Mustard Chicken

by

On Saturday night, Jaede and I decided to make dinner at the house – – just like old times!  After we got out of college, I loved having my girls over for dinner.

We’d also eaten crap the days previous (i.e. high-altitude donuts, dessert with dinner, etc)  So, I instantly thought of this dish because it’s a healthy option and oh-so-tasty!  Weight Watchers always has great low calorie recipes, and this was one that I tried last year and had been craving!

We paired this yummy, crunchy chicken with a tasty salad with the Red Wine Tomato Vinaigrette I love.  I even made some roasted broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots.  Amazing dinner, to say the least!

Note:  Unfortunately, I didn’t do the play by play with my camera, but you can see by the final shot how gorgeous this chicken is.

I definitely recommend trying this chicken.  You won’t be sorry.
