This was my first attempt at making homemade fish sticks.  By flaking cooked white fish and combining it with seasoning, I topped it off with a Corn Flakes coating and the result was delicious- the kids and I couldn’t stop eating them.  They taste like a healthier, modern version of a retro diner food, which is why I included them in my “Peggy Sue’s Diner Weekly Meal Plan“.
