GF Dinner #4!

Ok, so I'm figuring out that this gluten free dinner thing isn't half bad at all!!!!  40 clove garlic chicken,Delish....Crockpot carnitas with corn tortillas and bean salad, Yummo....Burger wraps with homemade French fries and sauteed zucchini, Yes please.....aaaaand tonight, GF chicken tenders with roasted cauliflower and kale salad....Oh Yeah!!!

Now, you'll say.....no way the kids eat that stuff, but in this house the golden rule is you WILL try it! Anna is a texture freak so she didn't like the zucchini sauteed, but she ate it as did the other two. They love beans and had fun eating burgers wrapped in romaine. I've heard the moans and groans, they are kids after all, but they have done a great job and have been great sports about it this week which is why they are getting rewarded with rice krispie treats tonight! (Yes, they are gluten free)  When it comes to a strange veggie with a weird texture, Sofia usually has sliced tomatoes or carrots raw instead and the other two will have a salad with ranch instead. It's all good! :-)  We've always been a healthy eating family that rarely eats out, dinner at a family table is a must for us. We are doing this gluten free thing together like we do everything! 

Tonight we encrusted the tenders in crushed rice chex and roasted the cauliflower with sea salt, garlic and sprinkled a little parmesan on it. Kale salad had apples, almonds, and a lemon garlic vinaigrette!
