Something's fishy....

It's Friday friends (can I get a woot woot?) and for this family it's also Lent.  Which means Friday = no meat for you (well for us).  So tonight was a fish-stick and mac-and-cheese kinda night. 

I typically broil fresh fish or even grill it.  But have I told you I'm a working mom?  Which means by Friday I am the one who is fried.  So I make the quick and easy - or reservations.

Tonight I was excited to try a new GF frozen fish product I stumbled upon at Wegman's  - Star-fish Crispy Battered Haddock

And did I catch deliciousness THIS BIG!!!!! These were outstanding!!!!  Crispy on the outside and succulent, flakey fish on the inside.  Seriously - no one would ever guess they are GF!  And according to their website they have cod and halibut varieties also!  I think I caught a new family favorite friends!  Definitely worth a buy.  The boy love them too and gave it his official GFP2B seal of approval. 

But let's face it - he's a kid,  and all kids like their fish as sticks.  And our go-to fish stick belongs to Ian's GF Fish Sticks.

Boy thinks these are "awesome" and wishes he could find them in rivers (oohhh-kayyy?).  Our friend's at Ian's has lots of GF products, which you can find at many local grocers and on their website. 

GF MAMA TIP:  You can make your own tarter sauce (my husband taught me this tonight) by mixing mayonnaise with some finely chopped pickles and add a little splash of pickle juice.  

So GFP2B friends - sometimes it pays to cast a line into an unknown sea of GF food products and try a new brand.  You never know if you'll get a good bite!

Do you have a good fish story to tell?  What are some of your favorite GF seafood recipes or products?
