Chili Onion Crunch Honey Glazed Carrots
One of my favorite condiments is chili oil. Trader Joes’ new Chili Onion Crisp is a favorite on almost anything. But when paired with honey to make an amazing glaze it is a game changer! Paired with homemade pickled raisins, this carrot dish is sure to bring the sweets and heat!

Plantain Crusted Chicken Fingers
One of my favorite guilty pleasures is chicken fingers. But ever since going gluten free its hard to find healthy chicken strips that also taste good. Most are soggy without any flavor. This is why plantain crusted chicken is the perfect solution to both bad textureand lack of flavor that many healthy chicken strips have. These chicken fingers are crunchy, crispy, sweet and salty, and packed with flavor. Super easy, and a crowd pleaser whether you are cooking for your kids, or snacking for yourself!
