I’m so glad the weekend is here. I feel like I’ve had a solid week back on track and I’m looking forward to my WW meeting tomorrow. Today was a very productive but busy work day where I really struggled to not eat everything. I did dive into the office chocolate and enjoyed.
I really wanted to love that WW Southern Corn Flake “fried chicken” but I have to say it was just OK. I even spiced it up a bit with some Frank’s Red Hot and it still could’ve used more kick. The buttermilk really keeps it tender and the cornflakes add a great crunch. It has potential to be delicious so I might give it another try. I just need to get the idea of crushed BBQ chips instead of cornflakes out if my head lol.

Hi, love your posts. What is a dirty cappuccino?
Re the chicken, add some spices to the corn flakes, like garlic and onion powder; Italian seasonings, chili powder, etc.
Thanks!
Dorothy
Hi Dorothy,
Good idea on the chicken. I will give that a try. A dirty cappuccino is a regular Nonfat Cappuccino with 1/2 a pump chocolate. It’s delicious without being too sweet.
Thanks for asking,

My friend made chicken with crushed BBQ Popchips. She said it was a hit at her house.
Hi Leslie,
That’s a great idea, will definitely try it!

Breading for anything must be properly seasoned at each step. So, yes, dried spices to the flour and corn flake stations, and maybe some hot sauce in the buttermilk station, would definitely help. Cooking the chicken on a cooking rack would probably make it extra crispy too.
Hi Catherine,
So true! I did add a little seasoning to the flour and some Frank’s red hot to the buttermilk. I should’ve added more obviously and I never thought to season the cornflakes but that would’ve definitely helped.
Thanks for the tips,
Danica
