Here's a great no-bake recipe. They are fun to make too.

• 1 ½ cup dark corn syrup
• 2 cups peanut butter
• 6 cups corn flakes

Combine sugar and corn syrup in a npan cook stirring consistently until boiling slightly. Remove from heat and add the peanut butter. Pour of corn flakes. Stir well. Put in pan to cut, or roll into balls. 

These are even better cold.

Homemade Baked Fish Fingers

Ingredients:

1/3 cup bread crumbs
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
½ tsp paprika
1 lb white fish fillets, cut into fingers (approx. 3” long x ½” wide)
1 tbsp butter, melted
½ tsp dried parsley
1 egg

Instructions: Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

Beat the egg in a small shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish, combine bread crumbs, cheese, parsley and paprika. Dip the fish strips first into the egg, then into the breadcrumb mixture.

Lightly grease a baking sheet. Place the breaded fish fingers onto the baking sheet, drizzle with the melted butter and bake in the oven until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily (about 7 – 10 minutes).

Your kids will love the fish fingers. Serve with homemade fries and a tossed salad.
