Tortilla Chip-crusted Chicken Bites

It’s back-to-school season again and I have an amazing recipe to share with you—this super easy and delicious tortilla chips-crusted chicken bites, made with O Organics organic chicken tenders!

When it comes to making healthy school lunches for my 5-year old pre-schooler, I am all about buying good, organic and high-quality ingredients. I live 2 minutes away from a nice Albertson’s and I can find O Organics products there.

O Organics offers over 400 products from chicken, eggs, milk to sweet apple slices, all certified organic by USDA. For the busy working moms, you can always opt for healthy lunch box solutions such yogurt, lunch meat, string cheese, pita chips, deli dips and deli roasted chicken!

The sweet thing is the price is really reasonable compared to other brands.
