Mayor's Message

Grand Openings and Street Widening.

This month Roy City will be conducting a grand opening of the new pickleball courts in the George Wahlen North Park. This event will be a finishing touch to a recreation facility that we have been working on for some time.

We were careful to place the courts in a location away from homes to help mitigate the noise level from the game. Interesting to note, that Utah ranks 9th in the nation of the most obsessed states playing this sport. We are confident this facility will be enjoyed by many, particularly those in the northern part of the city.

All indications are pointing to another grand reopening event in Roy. The Roy Complex reconstruction project has been making significant improvements and April is the month we plan to introduce all the changes to the public. I could not be more thankful for the long hours the Public Works and Parks/Recreation Teams have put into the project, not to mention the numerous

“The Roy Complex reconstruction project has been making significant improvements and April is the month we plan to introduce all the changes to the public.” contractors who have been making all the upgrades. I would be remiss if I didn’t thank all those who contributed to the special fundraising event that helped finance the needed improvements.

We received numerous contributions, both large and small, to make this happen. When we set the time and date of the reopening ceremony, please come, and join us.

For over a year now, we have been working with UDOT to try to move up the start date of the widening of 3500 West (SR-108).

I don’t need to remind those of you who use this street of the traffic congestion we experience every day. The Utah Transportation Commission will be holding their 2024 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program meeting soon and the UDOT Region One office will be presenting a request to the Commission to get things started on 3500 West. It is hoped with the Commission’s approval, UDOT will get a two-year head start widening this street. As we get more details, we will share it.

If you drive on the southern end of 3100 West, specifically south of 6000, you may have noticed that the Roy portion of the street is narrower than further south in Clinton. There is about a 10-footwide difference and that difference does create safety risks. We are working to secure funding to widen 3100 West at that location.

Good government requires public engagement. Please be involved!

Employee Spotlight – Ross Oliver Ross started his career here at Roy City in 1990 and we honored his 34 years of service, passion, dedication, and perseverance, at his retirement party in March.

There is no doubt that over 34 years of service, you’ve been witness to an ever-changing city. Ross is truly the glue that holds us together, the knowledge and understanding he has of Roy City is a powerful infrastructure. Over time, Ross grew to know the city like the back of his hand.

There isn’t a neighborhood and sometimes a neighbor, a crossing, a street, or a system interworking, that Ross doesn’t remember. He knows all our employees and treats them like family. He is committed to his word and the betterment of Roy City. Ross Oliver is a Roy City legend.

As the sun sets on a remarkable career of unwavering commitment and dedication, we as a city cannot deny that our offices and hearts will be missing a piece when Ross isn’t making the rounds to say hello. We have cherished the times of laughter, the opportunities to “call Ross” because he’ll know, and the ever-loved peace sign as he said, “See ya later”.

Ross, for your retirement, we wish you nothing but sunny days and endless golf games, you’ve earned it!

We are excited to share that Roy Communities That Care Coalition had the opportunity to travel to Washington DC to attend the 34th annual National Leadership forum and graduate from the 2023 National Coalition Academy.

While in Washington DC, Roy CTC joined several other coalitions from across the Nation and met with policymakers on Capitol Hill. We were especially excited to meet with Congressman Blake Moore to tell him about the great work that is happening in the Roy Cone. We appreciate his time and concern for our efforts. Our ask of him was that he continues to see the value in prevention work and continues to support funding that helps build safer, drug-free communities.

Roy City Stormwater– Only Allow Rain Down the Drain Please help keep our gutters, city streets, sidewalks, and parking lots clean to help prevent pollutants from washing into our storm drain system. The storm drain system in Roy City all drains into the Howard Slough, which fully feeds our Meadow Creek Fishpond. or killing fish. Algal blooms also harm water quality, food resources, and habitats. Some blooms are harmful to humans because they contain bacteria that can produce toxins that can make people sick if they swim in or drink contaminated water.

Things we all can do to help reduce nitrogen and phosphorous levels:

Nitrogen & Phosphorous Reduction The significant increase in recent years of nitrogen and phosphorus in water bodies across the country has intensified water quality problems. Too much nitrogen and phosphorus can cause serious water quality problems. Nutrient pollution impairs drinking water, endangers aquatic life, and threatens the recreational use of Utah’s streams, rivers, and lakes. Excess nitrogen and phosphorus in the water causes algae and some types of bacteria to grow faster than ecosystems can handle, a process known as eutrophication. Large growths of algae called algal blooms, reduce oxygen in the water, stressing

Do not mix other materials with oil. Call 801399-8803 or 801-726-8212 for disposal. Or visit Weber County Transfer Station, 867 W. Wilson Lane, Ogden, Utah. 84401 Please contact Roy City Public Works Department to report violations at (801)774-1090, if it is after hours, please call Weber County Dispatch at 801-395-8221. Our current stormwater ordinance is on our website at www.royutah.org.

Visible House Identifiers

The Small Detail That Makes a Big Difference in Finding Your Way Home In today’s world, proper address identification has never been more important. Some people get their daily Amazon packages, dinners via DoorDash, or even the weekly grocery delivery from Instacart.

One person you may not expect to have to find your house is Emergency Medical Services. When an emergency happens, seconds matter. Please take a moment to verify your address meets the code below from the 2021 International Residential Code to help these people be more efficient and accurate.

IRC code R319.1 Address Identification-Buildings shall be provided with approved address identification. The address identification shall be legible and placed in a visible position from the street or road fronting the property. Address identification characters shall contrast with their background.

Address numbers shall be Arabic numbers or alphabetical letters. Numbers shall not be spelled out. Each character shall be not less than 4 inches (102 mm) in height with a stroke width of not less than 0.5 inches. Where access is by means of a private road and the building address cannot be viewed from the public, a monument, pole or other sign or means shall be used to identify the structure. Address identification shall be maintained.

Roy City Information Dumpster Days April 15th to April 27th Monday through Friday 6:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Saturday 8 a.m. – 3 p.m.

Public Works has the right to refuse any items deemed hazardous and will not accept tires, paint, batteries, toxic or hazardous materials, herbicides, pesticides, etc.

Residents are required to stop in front of the office and wait. We will come to your vehicle, check proof of residency, and sign you in.

“Don’t Miss the Pickup: Stay on Track with Garbage and Recycle Reminders!”

Just a friendly reminder that recycling pick-up is every other week, on the same day as your garbage pick-up. To view the recycle week calendar, please visit www.royutah.org or stop into the utility office for a calendar copy.

As we gear up for Summer, please also be aware of the most observed holidays for Waste Management. These include Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day. Typically, pick-up is not delayed for Pioneer Day. If you are ever unsure, the best practice is to place your can out for the regular schedule, as holidays only delay service by one day.

Should you find yourself in need of replacing a broken lid, wheels, or the entire can itself, please contact our Utility Department at 801-774-1000. Our clerks will notify Waste Management for you and ensure replacements are made.

Cemetery Maintenance Schedule April 1st to October 31st All grave decorations will be removed by City crews every Thursday for mowing and maintenance. If weather prevents mowing on Thursday, maintenance will be performed on the first working day thereafter. Please be sure to remove decorations by Wednesday evening to avoid having them disposed of.

In preparation for Memorial Day, grave decorations will be removed by city crews on Thursday, May 23rd for mowing and maintenance. Decorations will not be removed again by city crews until Thursday, June 6th, to allow for decorations to be displayed the week of Memorial Day. Please be sure to remove decorations by Wednesday evening, June 5th, to avoid having them disposed of. For more information, please call 801-774-1040.

The Great

Spring Clean Cleaning tips and tools from the experts

BY CINDY JONES

Maybe it’s just the extra sunlight highlighting all my dusty surfaces, but in the early spring I’m called to all those forgotten corners to join in the “Great Spring Clean.” I gathered some cleaning advice from the experts to help make our spring-cleaning efforts quick, easy, and accessible. I interviewed two local women who own cleaning service companies, gathered some unique tips, and so much more.

Leora Warnes

Nature Maids

naturemaidsutah.com Leora Warnes was a single mom seeking a flexible part-time job to supplement her income. She had been making natural cleaning products for use in her own home, and in 2015 came up with the idea to start a cleaning business using her products. Today, she and business partner Nicole Simmons run

Nature Maids, employing a team of six cleaners and service over 70 clients of all varieties. Nature Maids also partners with a company called Cleaning for a Reason, that offers free cleaning services for cancer patients.

Glass Towels and warm water

“I love that I have a company that helps people in simple ways but with a big impact. Working with elderly and disabled clients is especially rewarding.”

A Squeegee is essential for clearing water from shower doors after showers, which helps prevent water spots as well as hardwater deposits.

Leora’s Tools and Tricks

A Cleaning Supply Caddy

DIY All-Natural Cleaner Leora uses a special mixture of distilled water, essential oils, natural soap, and grain alcohol that works as a non-toxic all-purpose cleaner for all rooms.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser is a sponge-like cleaning tool made of melamine that will remove a stain from just about anything. From marker and crayon on walls to mold and mildew stains in showers, this is a truly magical cleaning tool Leora swears by.

are perfect for quickly cleaning mirrors and glass doors in bathrooms and kitchens. These microfiber towels can be found on Amazon or in major retail grocery stores.

stocked with your favorite cleaners, sponges, towels, and other supplies ensure that everything needed for cleaning a space is close-at-hand.

Focus on one area or one room; Leora says to make the most of your cleaning time. Don’t move on until one area is done, even if it takes you more than a day. Not having to backtrack will save you time and energy!

Katie Winder

Katie the Cleaning Lady Facebook: Katie the Cleaning Lady

From an early age, Katie Winder knew, quite literally, the value of cleaning.

Her parents owned a motel in Ogden, and well before her teenage years she learned both the ability to make money performing simple cleaning tasks along with the intrinsic rewards it can bring.

“As a teen I would go to my friends’ houses and help clean their rooms and leave feeling so great, like I helped improve their life in a small way. Its satisfying to walk away from something knowing you made it better.”

It removes stains from just about anything: tile, marble, wood, stainlesssteel, porcelain, ceramic, and more.

Pumice Stones are hard, usually rectangular shaped volcanic stones that are great for cleaning hardwater deposits. Katie uses them in toilets, and they can also work wonders on mineral stains on sinks, bathroom tiles and ceramic surfaces.

A Scrub Daddy is a sponge that changes texture and firmness depending on the temperature of the water. The Scrub Daddy is firm in cold water for tough scrubbing and soft in warm water for light cleaning, which makes it the perfect tool for nearly any mess.

Save the sinks and mirrors for last. When you clean a room, you’re going to be constantly rinsing out dirty sponges and towels in the sink, and the mirror can easily get splashed. Finish off your bathrooms with these areas!

Let your bed breathe! At night we sweat and shed skin cells, which can harbor dust mites, ugh, gross!

Making your bed right after you climb out of it can trap the moisture and bacteria. Experts recommend leaving the blankets exposed to oxygen and sunlight for at least an hour to help reduce moisture, bacteria, and dust mites.

Quest for a Canine The bittersweet journey of bringing home a new puppy

BY MARLISS SCOTT PHOTOS BY ROCKY MOUNTAIN PHOTOGRAPHY

Maggie at 14 weeks

M

y husband, David, claims that I was the one who instigated us getting a puppy. He’d made a passing comment about how he wouldn’t mind getting a “bridge” dog. Ten-year-old Thunder, our English Pointer/Black Lab mix, is entering his twilight years—his black fur now tinged with white, and the bounce gone from his step. We’d had to put down Sparky, our 15-year-old Corgi mix, in early 2020. A tough decision, one I wouldn’t wish on anyone.

My mind is like a steel trap—I don’t easily forget passing comments, especially when the subject is a puppy.

Now I’ll admit, after Sparky, I was adamant that we would only have ONE dog from now on. But a seed was planted and now three years later, enter Maggie the Magnificent Magpie dog. You can just call her Maggie.

Did you know that magpies are one of the smartest creatures in the animal kingdom? Our new puppy had a look of intelligence in her eyes. And just like magpies, nothing gets past her. Just ask baby Jesus and Joseph.

18 April 2024

This past holiday she devoured the figurines, leaving behind a battered Mary, whom I thankfully was able to rescue from Maggie’s clutches.

“Despite the challenges, pets can bring us joy.

They embrace life to the fullest and drag us along.”

Back to the “bridge” dog comment: getting a new puppy while we still had Thunder would ensure our household would never be dog-less. When I told my son Forrest about Dad’s passing comment, he was on it like white on rice. He began texting me link after link to all kinds of puppies online. Forrest and I came close to driving to Cedar City on his day off to pick up Biscuit, a Border Collie mix. The owner asked about our household, which is fairly chill. We don’t have small children, and we’re almost empty-nesters.

We believe in staying fit, but they warned us that this breed tends to be

high-energy. And, according to dog behaviorist Cesar Millan, pet energy and family, or “pack” energy, should be equal to or less than the lowest energy entity (human or canine). So, I reluctantly passed on Biscuit.

While shopping at Station Park in Farmington one autumn afternoon, hubby and I saw some kids walking their silver Labrador* puppy. I’d done research on Labs when my son was sending me all those puppy links.

Now, we aren’t all about purebred dogs. Mutts and mixes are fine with us. We both just really liked the dog.

When I asked friends about their experiences with Labs, they all agreed that they make a good family pet.

David’s birthday is in October, and it dawned on me—wouldn’t it be a great surprise to gift him a puppy? After all, HE’s the one that wanted a “bridge” dog. I’m just giving him what he wants.

It didn’t take long for me to find a silver Lab pup on KSL. I was looking for a female as I felt there was a better chance of the puppy and Thunder, a neutered male, getting

along. Maggie was the last of the litter and, hallelujah, she was female. The downside was the owners lived near Price, about two hours from our home.

I had to act quickly. They were making a trek to Cabela’s in Lehi THAT evening and suggested I meet them there, cutting the commute in half. I couldn’t drive down there and not tell David what was going on. and I felt he should have the final say on whether he wanted her.

At 12 weeks, Maggie was sweet, she was cuddly, and those eyes! Of course, we got her and promptly spent bundles of money buying dog accouterments galore! Kennels, leashes, toys, food, and treats. We took her for her wellness check and enrolled her in a puppy training class which, Cesar Millan says is more about training the humans than it is about the dog. So true.

Now at almost seven months, Maggie is considered a teenager in dog years.

She’s fun, she’s rebellious, she’s sassy, and she’s a challenge. I’ll admit we have questioned more than once what we were thinking getting a puppy. And yes, maybe you knew this already, besides being smart, Labradors are

considered “high-spirited.” Guess we didn’t dodge THAT bullet.

Pet Adoption Resources

My canine quest takeaways? Despite the challenges, like housebreaking, daily walks in 30-degree weather, and potty breaks at 4 a.m., pets can bring us joy. They embrace life to the fullest and drag us along. Even with the destroyed manger debacle, you can’t help but laugh at their antics.

Pets, including cats, dogs, rabbits, horses, and even fish, bring our blood pressure down, alleviate stress and anxiety, and help with loneliness and depression. Most importantly, they give us unconditional love.

County Shelters

I recently discovered animal shelters across the state and country are experiencing pet over-capacity. If we find ourselves in another canine quest, we will be sure to check out shelters and rescue agencies.

After all, they are filled with active and healthy pets of all ages ready to share their love with us.

NEW TECHNOLOGY RESTORES AGING ROOFS

BY ANN PARK

With last winter’s record snowfall, many local roofs need some extra attention this spring. Roof Maxx is an up-and-coming new company applying a revolutionary product that treats aging shingles, rejuvenating and extending the life of your roof.

be a great candidate. We are local and working in your area, and we’d be happy to drop by for a free roof inspection. We climb onto your roof and take pictures so we can show you things that you might not realize are happening up there. We can let you know if your roof could be helped by Roof Maxx.

As shingles age, they grow weaker, are less flexible, and lose their texture. Toward the end of their life span, they begin to fail, cracking, curling, buckling, and blowing off in bad weather. Wouldn’t it be great if you could slow down or reverse the aging process?

A Roof Maxx treatment can turn back the clock.

The treatment protects, rejuvenates, and restores your shingles, giving your aging roof new life.

The scientists at Roof Maxx have created a bio-oil formula that penetrates aging shingles, increasing their durability, flexibility, and strength.

Fully replacing a roof is messy and expensive, usually costing $15,000 to $20,000 or more.

By using Roof Maxx, you can avoid the hassle and cost of a replacement. When your roof lasts longer, you reduce the amount of waste sent to a landfill. At a savings of about 75% over replacement, a Roof Maxx treatment, if your roof qualifies, is guaranteed to strengthen and extend the life of your roof by five years per treatment. With repeated treatments every five years, you can extend the life of your roof up to 15 years.

How do you know if Roof Maxx is a good fit for you? If your asphalt shingles are between 12 and 25 years old, you might

They Started With Just One Truck TURNING BACK THE CLOCK

BY SABRINA LEE

Louis Eldon, and brother Rulon 1909-1969 Familysearch.org Jay Peterson

H

idden behind modern businesses and trees on 1900 W, between 4400 S and 4500 S, surrounded by concrete is a reception center. This is all that remains of a massive cattle ranch owned by Rulon and Louis Peterson.

The brothers started out with a Model A Ford one-and-ahalf-ton truck that they built their own cattle body on. Louis had experience in buying and selling cattle from working with their father. Rulon had been a car salesman, and the combination of their skills proved to be successful.

By 1939, they were able to acquire several ranches and were leasing yards to hold the cattle. They paid cash for the land in Roy and began to clear the orchard to make way for multiple buildings. They now had the land and means to buy bulls by the carload. The ranch in Roy was eventually extended further to the Bamberger tracks, and there they built corrals to load and unload directly from the tracks. The barn was raised in 1939 and became legendary. It was massive, with a gothic roof and a huge Hereford bull on the front.

World War II brought its own difficulties. Finding labor and getting feed for the cattle was difficult. They brought men from Mexico to work, and the government provided large tents to house them. They stayed at the old Kanesville school site.

Peterson Brothers Herefords, Roy Circa 1940 Utah State Historical Society

The Peterson Brothers were hard workers and continued to grow their business. At one point the Roy ranch had 1,130 heads of bull on the property. But they didn’t stop at buying cattle, in fact the brothers invested in more land.

They purchased several small ranches in Liberty Utah. They were run down farms, but they improved the land so that they could better yield alfalfa and hay for the cattle.

They bought delivered and sold cattle across 23 states, Canada, and the then Territory of Hawaii. In Arizona they did business with the 26 Bar Ranch, of which actor John Wayne was a partner.

By the late 1950’s, Rulon and Louis decided to part ways. The herds were divided equally. Louis took the Nevada Ranch, and Rulon kept the Utah properties. Louis changed the name of the Nevada Ranch to Ruby Mountain Herefords.

The Tuscany Garden Reception Center is all that is left of the Peterson Brothers Hereford Ranch. The building’s interior and exterior has changed to fit its new purpose, but the original arched ceiling beams are still exposed on the upper level. The building will be 85 years old this year and stands as a reminder of what once was.

Marry Me Chicken

MORE RECIPES AT WHATTOEAT4DINNER.COM

BY NATHANIEL LOOMIS PHOTO BY MELISSA SPELTS

Marry Me Chicken finds its origins in Engagement Chicken, a recipe given by a fashion editor in Glamour Magazine to her assistant who then made it for her own boyfriend, and a proposal followed. What makes it such an incredibly simple dish is its versatility. Marry Me Chicken went extremely viral online, with tens of thousands of searches for it monthly, which is what convinced us to try it, and we think you should too.

Ingredients

Instructions

• • • • • • • • • • •

- Preheat oven to 375° In a skillet that can go in the oven, turn to medium heat, and add olive oil.

- Season your chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.

- Cook your chicken on both sides for about 5 minutes per side—it won’t be completely cooked.

Place the chicken on a plate and set aside.

- Add garlic to your hot skillet and let it cook for 1 minute before adding thyme, oregano, red pepper flakes, chicken broth, and heavy cream.

Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

- Drain and chop up your sun-dried tomatoes and add to your skillet, along with the grated parmesan cheese.

- Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the chicken.

- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. You will know it is done when the chicken is cooked through.

I like to use a meat thermometer.

- Serve over cooked noodles or rice and a veggie or two on the side.

Springtime Chicken Dishes RECIPES & PHOTOS BY MELISSA SPELTS FROM WHATTOEAT4DINNER.COM

A

s the season unfolds and nature comes alive with colors and scents, we invite you to bring that same freshness to your dinner table. Melissa has gathered and tried four delicious chicken recipes that are perfect for those busy spring evenings and sure to awaken everyone’s taste buds.

RECIPES AND PHOTOS BY MELISSA SPELTS

Chicken Pot Pie Pasta 2 Tbsp. Butter 3 Cooked and Cubed Chicken Breasts ½ Small Onion, Diced 4 Celery Stalks, Diced 3 Carrot Sticks, Peeled and Diced 4 Cloves Garlic, Minced 8 cups Chicken Broth 2 cups Half & Half 2 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Black Pepper ½ tsp. Garlic Powder ½ tsp. Dried Thyme ½ tsp. Ground Sage ¼ tsp. Cayenne Pepper 1 Egg Noodles 2 cups Frozen Corn 2 cups Frozen Peas 2 Tbsp. Corn Starch In a pot, melt butter and add chicken breast.

Cook 5 minutes on both sides until cooked through, place on a cutting board to rest.

In the same pot add diced onion, celery, and carrots.

Sauté until veggies are softened, about 5 minutes.

Cut chicken into cubes and let sit.

In the same pot, pour in the chicken broth and half and half. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, thyme, sage, cayenne pepper and stir together well. Set temperature to medium high heat. When it starts to boil, add your noodles. The egg noodles taste super good and cook quickly for a meal like this. Add 2 Tbsp. corn starch to a little cup and stir in cold water—just enough to make a thin paste. Pour the starch-water into the boiling pot and stir. This will help thicken the sauce. Let boil until noodles are cooked, about 8 minutes. Add cubed chicken and frozen corn and peas. Mix it all together and voila! Dinner is served.

Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken We got this recipe from eatwell101.com. We didn’t change a thing except we had to omit the garlic for one of our daughters (food allergy). Everyone loved this meal.

3 to 6 Boneless Chicken Thighs 2 cups Green Beans 3 Tbsp. Butter 4 Garlic Cloves 1 tsp. Paprika 1 tsp. Onion Powder ¼ tsp. Salt and Fresh Cracked Black Pepper ½ of a Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice ½ cup Chicken Stock 1 Tbsp. Hot Sauce ¼ tsp. Red Chilli Pepper Flakes ½ cup Parsley Dry out the thawed chicken with a paper towel removing any moisture so the chicken will brown better when cooking.

royconnection.com 29

Combine onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl before rubbing the mix all over the chicken and set aside.

Place green beans in microwave safe bowl. We used frozen green beans, and they were fine, but next time we’re going for fresh ones. Microwave for 8 to 10 minutes until almost done.

Chicken Mini Tacos Tacos Shredded Chicken (cooked) 24 Street Taco Corn Tortillas 4 cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese Olive Oil

BBQ Chicken Drumsticks 4 tsp. Minced Garlic 1 Tbsp. Lime Juice 2 Tbsp. Olive Oil 2 tsp. Salt ½ tsp. Pepper 12 Chicken Drumsticks BBQ Sauce

Place 2 Tbsp. butter in a skillet on medium-low heat until butter is heated, and place chicken thighs skin down. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes on each side until the chicken is browned.

Place on a plate and set aside.

Toppings Sour Cream Salsa Guacamole Fresh Chopped Cilantro

Place 1 Tbsp. of butter in skillet at a low temperature until the butter is melted and add parsley, garlic, hot sauce, red crushed chili pepper flakes, and precooked green beans. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes then add lemon juice and chicken stock. Let simmer on a low setting until sauce is thickened.

Remove the green beans and place in a separate serving dish. We added cooked rice to our plates making the meal more filling. Plate your chicken and green beans next to the rice and drizzle some of that sauce on top.

Sprinkle taco seasoning on uncooked chicken and cook in your slow cooker on high for 4 to 6 hours.

Once done, shred with two forks.

In a bowl add garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread all over the drumsticks and let it sit for 40 minutes to marinate.

Preheat the oven to 425°.

Bake marinated chicken in a pan on the stove for 5 minutes on each side.

Place parchment paper on cookie sheet.

Brush olive oil on one side of the corn taco shells and place down on the parchment paper.

Place shredded chicken in the middle of the shell with some cheese.

Bake for 12 minutes.

Fold tacos (careful, they are HOT). Top with your favorite toppings and EAT!!

First, pat down the chicken with a paper towel—this helps the chicken to crisp up while cooking.

Preheat oven to 425°.

Add BBQ sauce on the chicken and place on a baking rack. I like to spray the rack with non stick spray for easy clean up. Place rack on a cookie sheet that is lines with parchment paper (easy clean up) and into the oven for 5 more minutes. These were a hit in our home. Hope you and your family enjoy them too.
