"These are really intense!" Is exactly what my husband said after trying these Everything But The Bagel Chicken Tenders for the first time. I am very glad I did not add the extra salt to the seasoning like I was going to, because I had to agree with him, they were intense. Intense, but super delicious. I enjoyed mine drizzled with honey and John ate his with honey mustard. I also have snacked on them throughout the week, just plain as they are and tossed them in a salad. I feel like they would be great in so many applications.

Everything But The Bagel seasoning rose to popularity after being released but Trader Joe's. Now, you can find the seasoning being produced by many companies, so if you do not have a Trader Joe's near you, do not fret. Even though it does have the word bagel in the title, there is no actual wheat product involved. Check your brand for individual ingredients, but I have never had an issue with the TJs version.
