What To Do With Left Over Chicken Nuggets


I think my three year old daughter is finally coming out of her chicken nugget phase.  She still eats them whenever we go to McDonald's, but her refusal to eat the frozen kind (Tyson, Banquet, etc..) has started.  And while I am a little relieved that this phase is passing, I will not purchase anymore after we finish off this last bag.  Due to this, I have been left to figure out what to do with all these left over frozen nuggets.  I did a little research on Google and found a few ideas about what to do with them.  I figured I'd share some of them on here :)

~Boil some pasta (any kind), cut cooked nuggets into strips, mix them in with some spaghetti sauce and use as a topping for the pasta (we did this tonight and it was pretty good)

~Cook them and cut into strips and use on top of a salad

~Make a sandwich out of them by placing cooked nuggets inbetween two pieces of bread, a slice of cheese, pickles, mustard, and ketchup (I do this also from time to time)

~Cook them, dip them in honey, and eat

~Make a wrap out of tortillas and place cooked nuggets, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mustard and mayo spread

~Place the cooked nuggets in macaroni and cheese and serve

~Make a chicken parmesan sub by placing them inbetween sub bread and top with marinara sauce and cheese


......any one of these sound really good..but my personal favorite...eat them with just ketchup, bbq sauce, or honey mustard :) 

If anyone has any other ideas, I'd love to hear them :)
