Found Something New, Applegate Farms Chicken Nuggets
Like lots of children, Mei-Ling loves chicken nuggets but they all seem to have some ingredient or another that we don't like, mainly its the chicken aspect of the nugget we object to, that has been pumped up with hormones and antibiotics and who knows what other things that I don't think we need to be eating, but especially Mei-Ling with all her health issues does not need to consume that stuff. Some of the veggie nuggets have so many ingredients in them and lots of preservatives.
So we wanted to find something she would like, and was healthy for her.
Now for my shameless plug for Applegate Farms Chicken Nuggets. We got some for Mei-Ling to try, she is a real fan of chicken nuggets so if she liked them, we knew we had come upon something great. Sunday when she was visiting I made some for her and she ate 3/4 of a box all by herself. Mei-Ling daintily dips hers in ketchup. This tiny girl has a good appetite ! I tried them too and honestly they were fantastic. Not the least bit chewy, lots of flavor too. They are for sure a new family favorite and will be on my shopping list each week. I really like them too.
I believe in supporting companies that are trying to do it right. I wrote about Applegate Farms before on my blog regarding their Turkey Bacon You would think I owned stock or something in the company but I don't, I just like their products. Simple as that.

Seems like I mostly come home with fruit and vegetables, although I would rather get them from my own garden if the season were right.

I'm trying to find healthy alternatives too, and those veggie versions of things are full of additives. I'm stuck with them right now because of my vegetarian 9 year old - just in order to get enough protein in him - but I keep insisting that he TRY the beans, please. If you are going to be vegetarian, you gotta learn to like some stuff you don't like now!.... I'm working on it.
God bless,

Perhaps your ketchup brand is of a different composition, but thought this info might be of help to you. The best to your family. Marg
