A Delciously Healthy New Year DC Meal For Your Family

Author: Ann Kimberly
It is a New Year DC, and that means I am going to make a delicious dinner! For tonight's menu, I have chosen a few healthy choices.
I am breading my chicken tenders with a special Pros in the City breading that my grandmother always used. It is made from leftover biscuit crumbs from breakfast, paprika, salt, pepper, and a dash of cinnamon. I dip the chicken tenders in a buttermilk and hot sauce mixture then shake the coating onto them. My oven has already been preheated to three hundred and fifty degrees. The chicken will bake ...
for about forty five minutes on a baking sheet coated with butter.
For the New Year DC, I have chosen special sides of cabbage, new potatoes, and carrots. I do not peel the potatoes but rather leave them whole. I put about five large ones in a big pot of boiling water. I also add an entire head of leafed cabbage and a few handfuls of baby carrots. Everything should boil for thirty minutes.
While the main course is cooking, I start on the dessert. For dessert: fried apples with oatmeal topping. I slice and cut four apples then fry them in a tablespoon of butter until they are tender (approximately ten minutes). Then, I turn down the heat and add a half of a cup of instant oats, one quarter of a cup of water, two tablespoons of sugar, and a tablespoon of all spice. I stir everything up for one minute then cover the pan, remove it from the heat, and let it sit until after New Year in DC dinner.
Once the chicken is done, I remove it from the oven and sprits it with hot sauce. I mash the cooked potatoes up with some garlic powder and cream; the cabbage and carrots are served with a dash of salt and pepper. Everything looks, smells, and, most importantly, tastes like the most delicious New Year DC meal ever! The apples are a great conclusion to the meal, and, with a glass of milk, this dinner will hit on one of each of the five food pyramid categories for a healthy, well-rounded end to the day.
