I'm looking for different recipes that use corn flakes. My DH bought 4 boxes, (almost free after coupons), so we are trying to think of ways to use them other than just breakfast.

Thanks,

Laura

Here's one in my 'to try' pile. 

Crunchy Swiss and Ham Appetizers

Country Woman

We farm 2,000 acres and raise a few thousand chicken, so I'm often too busy to cook much in the summer. These appetizers are quick and easy, though, and perfect for hot days when you want to eat light. During the winter, when we have more time to entertain, they're also a great hit with guests.

2 cups very stiff mashed potatoes
2 cups finely chopped cooked ham
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup minced onion
1 egg, well-beaten
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3-1/2 cups corn flakes, crushed

Combine all ingredients except corn flakes; chill. Shape into 1-in. balls and roll in corn
flakes.

Place on greased baking sheet and bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes. Serve while hot.

Yield: about 8 dozen.

 And another one...

When mixture is smooth, add corn flakes; mix well but gently so as not to crush the cornflakes.

Wow, thanks for the great choices and the quick reply! He was so proud of himself, I just couldn't stand to just stick them in the cupboard.

I don't have a recipe to give you but I've used crushed corn flakes to coat chicken before baking (or frying).  I've also cut refrigerated tube biscuites in half, rolled them shaped like a bread stick. Then roll, or brush, them in a little melted butter or margarine & then into crushed seasoned corn flakes - season them with whatever herbs/seasonings you prefer...we like granulated garlic, parsley or dill - you can try red pepper flakes...your favorites...then bake them at the temperature recommended on the package.  Crunchy, flavored bread sticks.

Years ago my mom used to make Crushed Corn Flakes Crispy batter coating for Chicken and Fish bake & frying (long before "Shake and Bake" was even thought of.  Very similar result, but we preferred her preparation to the S&B product and encouraged her to stay with it).

She also used crushed Corn Flakes as a topping for several casserole dishes that were family staple favorites.

      Combine rice, half the onions, ½ cup almonds, milk, ½ cup Swiss cheese, undrained beans, and soup.  Put in 12x8 or 8x8 dish.  Pound chicken flat.  Divide remaining Swiss cheese among each piece.  Roll jelly-roll style and arrange on rice mixture.  Brush each with melted butter and drizzle rest of butter over rice.  Mix almonds, Parmesan, rest of onions and cornflakes. Before baking time is finished but after rice is cooked, scatter on top.  Bake at 350º for 35-40 minutes, or until chicken is tender.

I used frozen green beans.

      Combine first 9 ingredients.  Shape into 5 logs to fit buns.  Press a row of olives into center of each log, molding meat around olives.  Broil on grill or over hot coals, turning occasionally, 12-15 minutes, until done.  Serve in buns.
