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.

Family Movie Night Game

For about a year now we have been doing this "drawing" where each person, myself, husband, son and daughter, each pick a meal theme and movie genre out of a ziplock. I got sick of this way, it felt like we were getting all the same things week after week. So, each week one person draws their movie and dinner theme then we make the menu for the whole month. Since there is 4 of us, we each get 1 day a week, normally Sunday's unless birthdays fall on that day or Holiday's. I was doing some looking online for gifts for my husbands birthday and stumbled across a gum ball machine (yes, I got him one for his Christmas gift for his coffee). I bought the machine, bought the pods (listed below) and decided to make this game instead of drawing from a ziplock. We LOVE this way a LOT more. 

Not only has this made us come together to make the dinner menu monthly (we don't do weekly, we do the whole month), if gives us down time together. We know that Sunday's is for family day only and that is very important to me. It's brought us closer together. Allowing us to try new types of meals we may have never tried before. 

I hope ya'll use this for your own family movie nights! We love it!! I am going to attach my "game" list. This is movie genre and dinner theme.
