I don’t know how it came up last week but I asked Addie if she had ever had Shake & Bake and she had not so I got a box it. This afternoon we were trying to decide what we wanted for dinner. She wanted to use Door Dash and I couldn’t think of anything I really wanted other than a hamburger and didn’t think it would be so great by the time it got delivered out here. She’s having a pajama day and didn’t want to get dressed and go anywhere. After a few minutes of discussing what we might eat, we decided to make Shake & Bake. Addie wanted to watch the old commercial so I found it.
I asked Addie if she had ever had homemade French fries and she didn’t think so. I think she has but just doesn’t remember.
We had Shake & Bake and fries and she liked it. She said “You need to tell your blog readers about this!” I told her that my blog readers are mostly around my age and my guess is that they all know about Shake & Bake and what I didn’t say is that they probably will NOT be adding it to their grocery list this week. I actually don’t mind it but it isn’t going to be a regular on my menu.

I haven’t had Shake N Bake in a loooooong time! Might have to try a box sometime. 😉

I like Shake and Bake on pork steak. I haven’t had that in a long time. Now, it sounds good.
Carolyn says
I’ve not had this in a long, long time and I need to add it to my grocery list. I remember Mom loving to cook with it.
Ruth says
My favorite shake and bake is the bbq flavor, available in July. Delicious! It’s a powder that turns into a sticky sauce.
Judy Laquidara says
I’ll watch for that one. Thanks!

Sounds like you are having a great weekend with Addie, lucky Granny!! We love shake and bake at our house too, and have been making our own for ages. Here is a link to the recipe that I use https://www.rockrecipes.com/better-shake-n-bake/ I use Italian bread crumbs rather that plain and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. We store it in a big Zip Loc bag in the freezer and just take out what is needed. We love it on pork chops as well as chicken. Have a happy Easter.
Judy Laquidara says
Thanks! I’ll definitely try that!

omg, all the Shake ‘n Bake is going to sell out, and there’s going to be a run and a national shortage !!!

I used to use Shake and Bake a lot back in the days. Then when I learned more about healthier eating, I “googled” home made shake and bake recipes, and there are many. I make a match and keep it in a sealed container and it is so delicious and no additives, etc. But thanks for sharing!

LOL I was recently singing the Oscar Meyer hotdog song and my grandsons asked if I just made it up. So I found the old commercial online to play for them. So funny
Judy Laquidara says
Too funny. I just asked Addie if she’s heard it and she has not so now I’m looking it up.

Honestly – I did not even know that Shake and Bake was still on the shelves!
Judy Laquidara says
I didn’t either and was surprised when I searched for it on my Walmart app and they had it.
Rebecca says
I was just wondering a couple days ago about whether it still exists! Coincidence!
Judy Laquidara says
Great minds! 🙂
Linda in NE says
Judy, I think you’ve started a run on Shake-n-Bake! haha Hope the stores are ready for this!
Judy Laquidara says
You think? I think if every person who reads my blog bought it, they wouldn’t notice. 🙂
Carmen says
I have a recipe for homemade Shake and Bake, for pork chops. It’s very good.
