An old chef trick is adding hard cheese rind leftovers to soups. Garlic is pungent so some pungent hard cheese would add some similar punch. I've seen corn and rice Chex recipes for breading subs.

Oh tortilla chips, I didn't even think about that one!  I'm not interested in deep frying anything necessarily.  My stomach has enough trouble as it is without extra grease. Lol

Two tricks from my mom and not based on gluten free......just what she did.

Ends of safe cereals and cracker boxes.  Keep a jar in your pantry and fill as you go.  When I do this the flavors are always interesting in a good way.

For super crunch, my mom use to take left over waffles from breakfast, toast them some more in the toaster or oven and then she had a chopper thing she'd chop them with.  I think a food processor would work just not too fine.

And we did lots of cornflake chicken when I was a kid.

Corn meal, corn flake crumbs, and I bet, rice flour, though I have not tired it, would all make a good coating for nuggets.  True deep frying may help as well.  If you can do eggs, dipping in eggs or mayo may help too.  Mayo especially if baking. 

I am sure you can find low carb/paleo recipes to avoid the grains.  Try using those terms in web searches.  and Wheat Belly is a book about avoiding grains and has a companion cook book.  I have not purchased it, but it may have good options, since it is all about avoiding grains in the diet.

Similar to corn flakes, if you have a safe tortilla chip, those make a good breading when crushed.

Oh My Goodness!

I'm watching Triple D.  Guy is at a place called Funk'n Waffles.  They are deep frying chicken pieces (wings I think) in waffle batter.  I bet pancake batter would work good too.

We call that cereal. :)

I have heard the term, and it's either used as a derogatory term or refers to something babies eat, but it's an old fashioned term for that. It wasn't in use when DS was little where I was--or in the parenting mags and books I read.

A derogatory term?  I can't figure it out.

Trite, naive, simplistic, dumbed down. More regarding ideas than people (although by extension it does say something about the person/people behind the idea).

Here's a slightly different recipe.

http://spoonful.com/recipes/crunchy-cornflake-chicken

You can buy cornflake crumbs, or put regular flakes in a bag and crush them with a rolling pin. 

Some of these recipes will also work with Rice Krispie cereal.  (I'm not sure they are safe for you though.  Seems to me someone here that can't eat wheat buys a gluten free rice cereal.)

Italian dressing is just oil, vinegar, and herbs and spices.  You can mix up your own oil and vinegar with whatever seasonings you like and can have.  It works just as well as the bottled stuff, and tastes even better.

That sounds delicious!  I actually eat frosted flakes, which is one of the three cereals I can have.  Can't do Italian dressing though, garlic =( I wonder if it would soak in balsamic vinegar?  I cook with that sometimes.

I'd never heard of Pablum!  Maybe it is similar to malt-o-meal?

Cammiec, are you able to eat Corn Flakes?  I use Corn Flake crumbs to bread chicken pieces, drum sticks, thighs, whatever.

There are some recipes on their site I think, and on YouTube.  I soak the pieces in Italian salad dressing, then coat in the crumbs and bake,

And all pop is cola?

We distinguish between baby cereal and other cereal with the name Pablum.
