I'm not a mom who's trying to feed kids while sticking to the South Beach Diet, but if I was, I'm guessing I'd be even more excited about this way of making chicken nuggets so they're South Beach Diet friendly. The inspiration for the recipe came from my lovely friend Bonnie who adapted a recipe that used Bisquick into a South Beach approved version using almond meal or almond flour. Bonnie's having great success on South Beach, trying out a new way of cooking and eating that she says she knows she will stick to for the rest of her life, and this chicken recipe is one of her great experiments.

I’m a little bit obsessive when it comes to food.
I can happily eat the same thing day after day, while The Pastor scratches his head and looks for something else to eat. It was pretty clear this recipe was a keeper when he willingly ate these fritters twice in three days for lunch. Easy and quick to make, they’re perfect for using up leftover chicken but work equally well with canned chicken if that’s what you have on hand. They’re also great for that glut of zucchini I’m still getting from family and friends that garden.

Kale must be a super food, because it’s packed with vitamins and minerals. And I love that both the lemon and kale are alkaline-producing foods, helping us to lower acidity and inflammation in our body. Here’s one chart I found that can help you find more alkaline foods.
