I made baked tortilla chips for my classes the other day and they loved them. You know when teenagers tell you that something is good it really is. They tell it like it is most of the time. I was proving a point to them about portion control as well as fat grams in servings. Bagged corn chips that are usually served with cheese dip or salsa have 180 calories with 9 grams of fat for one serving which is thirteen chips. I piled the chips up and asked them if they considered that one serving. Everyone said no very loudly! Next I pulled out a medium-sized flour tortilla which is 110 calories with 2 grams of fat. And this is what I did.
I don’t know many people who don’t love chicken fingers especially children. In my case it is teenagers and GI Joe and I’m telling you that my students loved these. I found the recipe in the magazine Dash that sometimes comes in the Sunday paper. It has everything that cooks love. They are easy and delicious. I almost forgot these chicken fingers are baked. 
I haven’t made this in forever because I love it! It’s not good for my lose 5 more pounds diet. So why is it sitting here on my blog now you ask? Well, when your son returns home after being in California for a year and the mom has not been able to share the food love whatever the “glad your home son” wants he gets. Call it I’m home and I want all the comfort food that you can give me. When I came home from college all I wanted was my mother’s Tuna Casserole. I wouldn’t ask for her great roast beef and gravy or her famous meatloaf or even her fantastic shrimp salad. All I wanted was everyday Tuna Casserole. Well, this is not your every day Chicken Salad. It’s a little rich for every day.
