Mac and Cheese is probably one of the most loved dishes that ever existed.

But what if I told you that there existed a better for you Mac & Cheese (the boxed version) out there?

Say Hello to Goodles – a gooder noodle!

Easy & Healthy Dinner Ideas for the entire Family

This post is sponsored by CAULIPOWER but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

#ad These Baked Chicken Tenders are such a huge hit at our home - just 490 calories for the entire bag & coated with the goodness of cauliflower! #NoCluckinWay @caulipower

 

As a family with a young child, I am always looking out for easy, healthy and balanced meal solutions that our entire family will enjoy.

Lately, my little one is obsessed with chicken. There was a phase when he used to love steamed peas & carrots and now he won’t touch them. But if you offer him chicken, he will devour it in no time.

Now let me tell you that when it comes to frozen meals, I am very, very picky, especially when it comes to serving them to my little one. I always make sure to read the label and make sure I’m offering the very best to him.

So what is so different about these chicken tenders? These juicy tenders only have 490 calories for the entire bag and are baked (not fried) to crispy golden perfection.
