I'm a nutritionist and needed a healthy fish fix. Moist inside and crunchy outside, these are great with oven fries or roasted veggies and low-fat homemade tartar sauce. —Jennifer Rowland, Elizabethtown, Kentucky

While the process to make them was easy, I found the coating to be lacking in flavor. They were bland and boring.

These are great! Even non-fish eaters will love them. I made a second batch with half cornmeal and half Parmesan cheese because I was out of bread crumbs by then, and my husband liked them even more. Great recipe!

by the way, I agree, I skipped the fake spray and just drizzled with a little melted butter--great

They are the best we ever had and easy, too. I also did not use the butter spray. They were good without it.

I would make this recipe again. I too did not use the spray on the fish sticks. The fish sticks were crispy and the flavour was great. My family agreed that this recipe was a keeper for us.

My husband and I have incorporated healthier choices into our overall plan to be better as we age. This is a GREAT recipe. I used panko breadcrumbs that gave the fish a wonderful crunch!

these are good, but agree with jabrowland, get rid of the chemical butter flavor spray

I used a combination of panko and wheat germ because I was out of breadcrumbs - my picky kids loved them thank you!!!

Boy did they change my recipe! I use haddock but I know it can be hard to find. Also I use sea salt which is lower in sodium than table salt, and I would never use cooking spray because of all the chemicals! -Jennifer R.
