    I used them crushed with a bit of spices quite awhile ago and made chicken tenders. My family liked them.. Chicken stays moist. You can also use them to make onion rings. Just crush, dip the onions in milk, coat and bake til done. These are both hungry girl recipes. Not sure if you've ever gone to their site, but they have lots of diet hints too & a couple cookbooks out there.

    I've used corn flakes on pork chops. I'm sure it's the same concept. Turns out good.

    OK...so I made these last night and LOVED them! I cut the chicken breast into strips and dipped them into two beaten eggs and then into the cereal. While making these I realized that I only had the Honey Clusters Fiber One, so the crust was kind of sweet but delicious! I baked them in the oven at 350 for about 20-25 min. I definitely recommend trying these.

    PanicAtTheBuffet - I need to try that recipe. It sound yummy! I just didn't have buttermilk or the stuff to make it and didn't feel like going to the grocery. Next time though!

    I've made tenders as well and love it. My non-healthy friend even loved it. It's an interesting and tasty alternate.

    I have done it with Fiber One, but now that I'm gluten intolerant I use Rice Chex crumbs... same thing! :flowerforyou:

    I did this recipe from the Hungry Girl website:
    I liked it, and my family too, but next time, I'm gonna use something else instead of the onion soup mix; we didn't care about that...

    BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN BY HUNGRY GIRL


    Don't Fry Over Spilt Buttermilk...
    Making a recipe that calls for buttermilk? Use this simple substitute, and you won't need to buy any:
    Prep Time: 5 minutes
    Ingredients:
    • Milk (just under one cup)
    • 1 Tablespoon white vinegar or lemon juice
    Preparation:
    1. Place a Tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measuring cup.
    2. Add enough milk to bring the liquid up to the one-cup line.
    3. Let stand for five minute. Then, use as much as your recipe calls for.

    Fried chicken is a true country classic, and buttermilk fried chicken's even better. Either way, it's far too fatty for us. But good news! We've made it over using lean chicken, lightened-up buttermilk, and our signature faux-fry method with some extra-special additions. It's so good, you'll want to slap somebody! (Please don't.)

    Ingredients:

    1/3 cup reduced-fat buttermilk

    1/8 tsp. paprika
    12 oz. raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast tenders (about 10 pieces)

    1/3 cup Fiber One bran cereal (original)

    1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs (like the kind by Progresso)

    1 tbsp. dry onion soup mix
    Optional: salt, to taste

    Directions:
    In a large sealable container or plastic bag, combine buttermilk with paprika and mix well. Add chicken and coat completely. Seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

    Prepare a large baking sheet by spraying it with nonstick spray. Set aside.

    Using a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One cereal to a breadcrumb-like consistency. Pour crumbs into a large bowl. Add panko breadcrumbs and onion soup mix. If you like, add a dash or two of salt. Mix thoroughly.

    One at a time, remove each piece of chicken from container/bag, give it a shake (to get rid of excess buttermilk), coat it evenly with the crumb mixture, and lay it flat on the baking sheet.

    Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Flip carefully (tongs work well!), and then bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until outsides are crispy and chicken is cooked through. CRUNCH time!

    The recipe is already in the database too :)
