FRIED CHEERIOS

EDITED TO ADD: This is just a family recipe and treat. It is not exact, it will not be to everyone's liking. I have never had them turn out soggy or so bad they had to be thrown out. All I can say is cut down the butter or add more cheerios and maybe not everyone will llike them. I've seen many recipes posted her that were not exact and just family recipes. I'm sorry it has not worked out for a couple of posters, but it is not an exact recipe with proper instructions, its something mom made us as a snack to stretch money that was not there. Thanks for trying it but if your set against something absoulutely turning out perfect and to your liking with exact measurements and a science to it, you may want to pass this recipe by. Not a health conscience snack, my mom made these for us because her family could not afford popcorn when they were growing up and this was their alternative not a healthy snack but not only do I love it but also my kids love to have something nana use to have

CHEERIO CHICKEN

I did not have any extra bread/ crumbs or corn flakes, but wanted some fried chicken and cheerios sounded like it would work. I crushed them in a plastic bag and rolled a bowl over them. when I made them I used 2 eggs but that seemed to be to much and I had left over egg mix so I only put one on here if that isn't enough I would suggest a little milk to thin it out. when I made my dry cheerio mix I just tossed in spices these are just guesses. feel free to improve and change to your taste. Hope you have fun with it! (by the way It is really lemony but that is how I like my chicken if you don't like the lemon only use half of the lemon for it's juice)
