Copycat KFC Bowls
I’m a HUGE fan of making a big bowl of this when I want easy and delicious comfort food. I thought why wouldn’t I make for an entire weeks worth of lunches?!
I actually have never had this at KFC. We don’t usually go out for fast food and with my husband being allergic to poultry, there isn’t much there that he could eat. Granted, he would be happy with a big bowl of mashed potatoes!
I put the chicken gravy in condiment containers to save from any sogginess of the chicken when reheating. If you have an air fryer, I highly recommend you reheat the chicken that way! We don’t have those at work so microwave it is and will still be DELISH!
Copycat KFC Bowls
Oh boy am I excited for my lunches at work this week! These are so freak'n delicious that I could never get tired of them. I love the Idahoan Original mashed taters. They have the lowest points than any other type of store-bought mashed potatoes that I have found. I have been eating them for years.This chicken is the absolute BEST! The flavor, seasoning and breading is all perfect.

I made this for lunch prep for this week. The only difference is that I used the Tyson black pepper herb chicken breast strips. This reduced the WW points to 7 per bowl.
Hi Lynn! That sounds delicious and such a great idea!!
