If it’s a weeknight and I don’t have a leftover pasta sauce or stir fry in the fridge from my big weekend cook, then I try to keep dinner simple. I’ll build out my plate by first thinking about my protein source, then veggies, and finally grains. Ideally, this all comes together in a half hour or less, and I can do most of the cleanup before my components are done cooking. Looking to follow my formula? One easy protein source you can keep on hand for busy weeknights is on sale — but not for long.

What Is Heartland Fresh Chicken Fried Chicken Nuggets & Gravy?
These are not your kids’ chicken nuggets. Available exclusively on QVC, Heartland Fresh chicken nuggets are Southern fried-style, with breading that clings onto a buttermilk batter and provides a satisfying crunch, especially when the nuggets are cooked in an air fryer. They’re accompanied by a creamy gravy that comes together in minutes when whisked with water on the stovetop. A 3-ounce serving of chicken nuggets is packed with 14 grams of protein, and this 6-pound order comes with a tremendous 32 servings. Nuggets are packaged in dry ice for shopping, and Heartland Fresh says they’ll keep well in your freezer through a year after your date of purchase.
Shopping Writer Micki Wagner recently tried a very similar product from Heartland Fresh, the chicken fried chicken with gravy (non-nugget style). “It has a peppery, crispy breading that is honestly better than what I could make at home,” she wrote in her review. “Plus, the chicken itself is super tender, not tough or rubbery like other frozen chicken I’ve had.” While she found the gravy a little bland, it was easy to liven up with the spices in her kitchen. She added, “If I throw a side of broccoli into my air fryer with the chicken, I can have a full dinner (or lunch!) in less than 20 minutes.”
