If you want to create new memories for your kids or grandkids then this is your chance…
Ingredients:
6oz shortcrust pastry

flaked almonds to sprinkle on top
Top Food Recipe: Golden Chicken Nuggets
I personally love eating chicken nuggets and having a child means I have the chance to eat them even more. I prefer not to buy them pre-made though because the salt levels are sky high and they do not offer anything for a growing child.
However whenever you make your own they taste simply amazing and melt in your mouth as you take a bite. Though I should warn you now once you have sampled home made chicken nuggets you will never want to go back to the McDonalds chicken nuggets range again!!!
