Breaded Fruity Baked Chicken, Sweet potato chips and continued weight loss

Recipes:


Breaded Fruity Baked Chicken

I took chicken breasts and cut them thin
I then breaded them with corn flakes and a touch of allspice. 
I pan fried them for a few minutes on each side to brown them.
Next, I placed them in a baking dish and put some diced peaches and mangos (I left a little juice with them) on top.
I baked this for about 30 minutes and it was AWESOME!
Yum...moist, tender, sweet chicken breasts!

Sweet Potato Chips
For our evening snack, we did sweet potato chips!
I sliced the sweet potatoes very thin- I used my mandolin.
You can either bake at 375 for around 20-30 minutes-  this is more labor intensive because you have to watch carefully and turn half way through.  They burn easily and you have to watch carefully.  You coat in a little coconut or similar oil before putting on the baking sheet.
You can fry them in oil- easier to cook evenly and not burn- not as healthier as we're talking about frying.  This is what I did!
After out of oil I did a touch of sea salt and then ate them like I've never ate anything before!  They were so yummy!
