Copycat Chick-Fil-A Gluten Free (and Paleo) Chicken Nuggets

*Caution, affiliate links ahead…Don’t worry, I’ll use the money for something practical, like wine…. or a pony!

Are your kids like my kids? Could they survive on chicken nuggets and fries? Every time we pass a Chick-fil-a my kids start bugging me to stop for some chicken nuggets. I love chicken nuggets from Chick-fil-a as much as the next person, however I don’t love all the MSG, sodium and other such nonsense, so I started making copycat chicken nuggets at home. These chicken nuggets are just as good as the “real thing” and actually good for you. Serve them with a side of sweet potato fries and you have a meal that will have your kids grinning from ear to ear with chicken nugget happiness and you smirking, secretly knowing that they are eating something good for them! #Parentingwin!
