My sister & I are always on the lookout for new recipes to try out for Sunday dinner. Sunday dinners have always been a tradition in my family that I love. It’s so fun to cook together, eat together, & just spend time together. We decided to attempt some healthy chicken strips this past Sunday, and they ended up being so delicious. The kiddos even gobbled them up!
