Fantastic Fish Stick

I was talking to my girlfriend the other day. We were discussing our quick meals that we reach for when we don't feel like cooking. Yes, every- so -often, I don't want to cook.

She brought up Fish Sticks and a quickly realized that I have never fed my sweet babies Fish Sticks. That's a huge mommy faul on my part. After all, aren't eating Fish Sticks a childhood right of passage? 

Another friend supplied me with a super kid friendly recipe. We all know I can't follow one, so here's my adaption. 

Fish sticks

1 teaspoon roasted cumin 

1 tea basil

1 tea lemon peel

1 1/2 tea dill

1 tea sea salt

1/2 tea pepper

2 cups breadcrumbs (I used pepridge farms

2 cups yogurt (I only had vanilla 😉)

2 pounds tuna ( giver or take. Just enough for four persons)

I mixed the spiced in the yogurt. Let it Merry for about ten mins

I sliced the fish against the grain then rolled it in each yogurt mix to breadcrumbs. Place on lightly olive oiled baking sheet and place in a preheated 400 degree oven until the bred crumbs browned then I flipped the and cooked another 10 mins or so. 

I am a firm believer in using what you have. Hence why I used tuna. I suggest using a milder fish. A white fish like flounder or cod. 

I think it works best with about a inch or so rise. Then you can adjust cooking accordingly.

I have some leftover and plan in making a Balsomic reduction for a sweet addition. 

I hope you enjoy these as much as I did!

Cool school garden, Claud A Taylor

Stumbled upon this very cool school garden today while playing with the family.
It's so refreshing to see the school taking the time to teach about where our food comes from. Awesomeness all the way around! From the pallet made compost pile to the neatly aligned rows sprouting fresh greens :-) Thanks for taking the kids back to the root!
