BREADED FISH
Here is a
quick and easy fish dish, as long as you already have my bake mix on hand. My hubby loves this. You can use any white fish fillets that you prefer and which are readily available. We live in a country where fish and seafood is so abundant. 9 times out of 10 when we go to a restaurant for a meal, I choose fish or seafood. This is an easy and delicious way to increase healthy Omega-3's in our diet as we mostly overdo the Omega-6's. Even my new, very picky daughter-in-law (when it comes to food) liked this. I had a lot of practice with picky eaters when the boys were growing up. I often had to make several options in order to keep everyone happy and satisfied. To this day my eldest son won't eat raw tomatoes and my youngest son won't eat peas or eggplant. My eldest son has never been a big fan of desserts or chocolate (this one I cannot understand), but he will eat apple anything and for special occasions, he loves it when I make apple pies from my first cookbook, Splendid Desserts, one that was published when I was only 35 years of age. Little did I know at the time that I'd just carved a career for myself that was not always an easy one, albeit an enjoyable one.
