Home-Baked Bread

Snacking turned differently when I re-learned how to bake stuff. We have not been buying the usual biscuits and cookies because the children (and hubby and I as well) have been eating home-baked goodies.

I baked every other day since a 9×9 baking pan of brownies or several batches of mini-loaves and muffins are gone before 48 hours.

Last Monday we had these in our lunchbox for our snacks:

Fried Cream Dory Fillet

The Fried Cream Dory Fillet is undeniably one of the favorites on the dining table.

So what do I do to prepare these easily? I have a concoction ready-made just for these fillet:

  • all purpose flour
  • cornstarch
  • bread crumbs
  • salt
  • pepper
  • dry basil

I have all these in a jar ready to use whenever the children ask for the Creamy Dory Fillet that is if we still have some left in the freezer. I just need to beat eggs to dip the fillet before I use this.

For that batch above,  used additional fresh basil leaves that i cut into very tiny pieces. The smell was wonderful 🙂

Try having this is a seafood restaurant and be prepared to pay for a big bill 😉

Sliced Apples and Chocolate Milk Drink

For the third week of the What’s in your Lunchbox Meme entry over at the FilipinoMomBlog.com here is what Julian and Tania had for snacks yesterday:

Sliced apples and chocolate milk drink. I know these do not exactly “match” but they love both so that is what I give them.

The apples were washed using (I know this may sound weird) liquid dish washing soap to ensure that the skin is clean. The apple is then sliced thinly so that they can easily eat the pieces and not feel that have had too much of the fruit.
