Cool New Coffee Drinks at Chick-fil-A

By 23 Comments

Cool new menu items cover1.jpg

 

Have you tried Chick-fil-A for breakfast?

 

There are some new exciting items that have been added to the menu that you will want to try.

 

You can now get Hot and Iced Coffee! I LOVE coffee and the new Hazelnut flavor was my favorite!

The new coffee is a farmer direct product…meaning the farmers themselves are getting a lot more money for their product…not the middle men…many farmers can now support their families on 10 times the amount that traditional coffee farmers get.

It’s great that this coffee helps farmers keep more money in their pockets! You can learn more at CoffeeWithAStory.com

Iced Coffee:(Original and Vanilla Flavor) $2.35/medium – $2.65/large

Frappe: $3.69

Chick-fil-A Houston Road provides free Wi-Fi – great for hanging out while you drink coffee and work or let the kids play while you work/visit with friends. Another great way that Chick-fil-A can help you enjoy a breakfast for work or play.

Zesty Asian Chicken Recipe

By 9 Comments

zesty asian Chicken cover.jpg

For my next cooking challenge, I decided to use Chick-fil-A Nuggets to make a zesty Asian chicken recipe dish. My boys love Chinese food so I knew this meal would be a hit. I picked up the catering nuggets from Chick-fil-A.

Zesty Asian Chicken

While the nuggets were cooking, we worked on the sauce and the rice. We use a rice cooker so you just add water to the rice and push cook.

Zesty Asian Chicken

For the sauce, you start by dissolving corn starch and rice wine vinegar in a small bowl and then set aside.

Next you combine all of the other ingredients in a saucepan. Then add the mixture from your bowl.

The nuggets are baked at 325 degrees for 15-20  minutes.

Mix the sauce with the nuggets and pour over rice. You can also add stir fry vegetables to the meal if you want.

10 Excuses to go to Chick-fil-A instead of cooking dinner tonight

By 20 Comments

Chick-fil-a Houston Road

 

One of my favorite things about being a Chick-fil-A ambassador is that it gives me an excuse not to cook dinner. My kids look forward to our visits and everyone is happy with our meal. We enjoy quality time as a family and no one has to prep food or clean up afterwards.
