2 large boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
1 Cup Flour
1 1/2 Cup Cracker Meal
1/4 tsp. Paprika
2 Cup Water
2 Chicken Bouillon Cubes
2 1/2 tsp. Fines Herbs
Peanut Oil for frying
Place water in large bowl; add 1/4 teaspoon Fines herbs and dissolve bouillon cubes in mixture. Place cubed chicken in water, mix, cover and place in refrigerator for 12 hours.
Mix flour, cracker meal, 2 teaspoon fines herbs, and paprika in large bowl. Heat peanut oil for deep frying. Drain chicken from water mixture. Coat nuggets in flour and cracker mixture and fry in small batches until golden. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Be careful not to get the oil to hot and burn the chicken or all the remaining chicken will taste burned.
"I use Fines Herbs in my chicken recipe because that is the seasoning that Kentucky Fried Chicken uses in their original recipe chicken. If you can't find it you can order it online from Penzeys Spices here in Minneapolis or you can use McCormick garlic and herb seasoning.

Biscuit Dough Donuts
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar
Icings:
2 cups confectioners' sugar, divided
5 tablespoons milk, divided
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2 cans large buttermilk biscuits
Assorted sprinkles
Directions
Heat 2 inches oil in a large pot or Dutch oven to 350 degrees F. In a shallow bowl, stir together the ground cinnamon and sugar and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup of confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, set aside. This is the vanilla icing. In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup of confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup of cocoa powder and 3 tablespoons of milk and set aside. This is the chocolate icing.
Lay out the biscuits on a cutting board and with a 1 1/2-inch round cookie or biscuit cutter, cut out a hole from the middle of each biscuit. Fry them in the oil until golden and then flip with tongs to fry the other side. You can even fry the donut holes. Drain on paper towels and then toss in the cinnamon-sugar or ice and decorate with sprinkles, as desired.
I realize this is not a very healthy recipe, but if you have little kids they will LOVE it! My boys beg me to make these and they are so easy! We usually make these on holidays and then I get sprinkles for whatever holiday it is! What a wonderful recipe to get your kids in the kitchen with you!
Ants on an Apple
2 Braeburn Apples, cored and sliced into thin wedges (I leave the peel on, but you will want to peel the apples for little kids)
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
dash of cinnamon
craisins, or raisins
Mix peanut butter, honey, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Spread onto apple slices and dot with raisins. *My boys go crazy for this after school treat, and I dont hear "I'm hungry" for at least an hour!*

Homemade Soap Bubbles
1 cup water
2 teaspoons liquid dish soap
1/2 teaspoon glycerin (you can find this at a drug store)
Mix all ingredients and blow away! This mixture works great in those bubble machines that make a million bubbles in a few minutes and for the old fashioned kind you dip and blow!
I would recommend doubling or tripling this recipe, it goes a long way (if they don't spill it) and you can store it in in the fridge.

Glurch
1 cup white school glue
3/4 cup liquid starch
Stir glue and starch together. Knead with hands until thouroughly mixed. If mixture is too stringy add more glue, if its too sticky add more starch. You can add food coloring to the glue before mixing, or you can color it with markers after its finished!
Most of the fun with this recipe is making it, so be sure to let your kids help!
This is a slimy, snot like substance that little boys love! At least mine do!

Rainbow Stew
1 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup sugar
4 cups cold water
food coloring
Cook cornstarch, sugar, and water over medium heat until thick, stirring constantly. Seperate mixture into 3 diffrent bowls. Color one batch red, one blue, and one yellow. Scoop spoonfuls of diffrent colors into baggies. Make sure they are sealed tight! Encourage kids to squeeze the bags to make new colors!
This is a great rainy day activity for pre-schoolers. It teaches them about colors and about what colors are used to make new colors!

This is the only playdough I will ever use because it stays moist for so long! I can keep this in the fridge for several months and my Jonathan LOVES to play with it! Be careful around little kids, it smells really yummy so they tend to eat it....but it tastes really gross so they dont eat much!
