Honey Mustard Chicken Tenders

Looking for a twist on the traditional chicken tenders?  These Honey Mustard Chicken Tenders with a delicious honey mustard dipping sauce might just be a new family favorite.

My husband is always skeptical of a lighter (Weight Watchers) dinner, worried it will taste different. However, he’s always surprised as to how flavorful the dishes are — no one would know it was on the healthier side.

So, on that note, I hope you’ll give this delicious-ness a try!
