Homemade McChicken

M cChicken sandwich, spicy or regular, has always been a household favorite until McDonalds started adding crap to the recipe. I used to work at McDonalds when I was 16 years old, things have def changed from then to now. Season it how you wish, I just throw a bunch of spices in and call it good! Does not matter what you use.  You Will Need: Ground Chicken Garlic Powder Onion Powder Paprika  Breadcrumbs  Flour Egg Wash Mayo Buns Lettuce Tomato After you form patties, freeze for 1 to 2 hours. Once frozen, dip in flour, egg then bread crumbs and deep fry until golden brown and 165 degrees temp reached inside. 

SAFE Cookie Dough

My oh my! Daniel is loves cookie dough more than cookies that are cooked. Whenever he is craving or wanting cookie dough I yell at him because the eggs are not safe to eat raw and I definitely do not want him getting sick, that would seriously upset me! Recently, I contacted the farm where I get my eggs asking them an important question.. Do you have pasteurized eggs? They told me "no we do not have those eggs and to be honest they are not the best quality and not good for you. But our pasture-raised eggs are completely safe to consume raw, if you want or need to consume raw eggs". Here is the direct post from them..

Vital Farms Hi Melinda - since our eggs are laid by healthy hens that are free to forage outdoors, we do not need to pasteurize our eggs! Pasteurized eggs are usually factory farmed eggs that require a sanitation process. If you were to choose to eat raw eggs, pasture-raised eggs would be the safest!

This makes me feel extremely confident sharing this recipe with everyone and with my family too. I had a feeling that pasture-raised eggs were the safest and best choice but honestly you certainly never know! Well, onto it... here is my most amazing, chewy, perfect, delicious cookie recipe! Enjoy!

You Will Need:


1/2 Cup Organic Butter, unsalted (softened)
3/4 Cup Organic Coconut Sugar (or reg. organic sugar)
1 Large Pasture-Raised Eggs, room temp
1 tsp Organic Vanilla Extract
1 Cup plus 2 tbsp Organic All-Purpose Flour (or whole wheat)
1/2 tsp Baking Soda or Baking Powder (Bob's Red Mill)
1/2 tsp Salt
1 Cups Organic Chocolate Chips (click here)



Cream the sugar and butter together 


Perfect 


Whisk in eggs, until light and fluffy


Add vanilla


Whisk in dry ingredients


This is the correct form you want; not to wet, not to dry 


Fold in the chocolate chips!
