Oven baked Fish Fingers (recipe coming soon)

Now that my son is getting older and doing great with finger foods, I want to recreate some of the classic convenience foods and make them healthy. These crumbs are a great substitution when a recipe calls for traditional bread crumbs.

Note:  Be sure to salt your meat of veggy before using these crumbs.  There is salt already in recipe but you may find you want a little more.  Taste prepared crumbs and add more seasonings if needed. 

So here is the Bread-less Bread Crumbs I will be using in lots of recipes as its own post.  This keeps well in refrigerator and I recommend making it in a bigger batch so you don't run out.


Note:  To make dairy free, omit the Parmesan Cheese and add 1/2 cup more almond flour and 1/4 tsp more salt.
