Perdue has a great new line of frozen chicken and I am totally thrilled with them!
Perdue SIMPLY SMART®, is a convenient frozen food option designed to meet the growing demand for products that are both healthy and flavorful. This line of grilled, lightly breaded and roasted chicken delivers the nutrition and great taste that naturally comes from real, simple and recognizable ingredients, such as sea salt, unbleached wheat flour, cracked black pepper and olive oil, and contains no preservatives.
Each item in the line has at least 40% fewer calories, at least 50% less fat and at least 25% more protein than the USDA standard for breaded fried boneless chicken- making it a healthy, quick and easy addition to any recipe! PERDUE® SIMPLY SMART® chicken can also be found in the WEIGHT WATCHERS® online foods database, making it a great option for those watching their waistlines.

When I got home from School on Friday, I was completely exhausted but still wanted a healthy, home cooked meal. So I took out my Simply Smart Lightly Breaded Chicken Strips and quickly whipped up 3 delicious wraps.
I used 2 cooked chicken strips for each wrap.
I mixed 2 tablespoons of sweet and sour dressing with 2 cups of sliced Napa Cabbage.
I placed some of the cabbage, sliced chicken strips, and some sliced almonds on a thin wrap. Dave added some diced hot chili peppers.
And this is how it turned out! It was so easy and delicious!
Dave and I are really impressed with this chicken. It is moist, flavorful, and healthy! I am definitely going to keep some on hand and will stash a few bags in my son’s freezer!

I would like to try it, to see if it tastes good. Really, not even regular fat, so to speak, frozen prepared chicken is that great, so hopefully these are!
Thanks

Would love to win this because I just lost my entire fridge and freezer full of food (including some chicken) from the October storm. Also, because we try to cook with chicken as much as possible. That recipe is something I’d definitely make! Thanks for the chance.

Would love to try this. With 3 teenagers at home and working full time, am always looking for quick ways to get a healthy meal on the table.
I live with my family right now and they eat so unhealthy!! It would be great to have an easy thing I can make for myself on a night my family is eating their horrible food!
