quick cooking question

I am planning on making pork chops with corn flake coating, but because I am trying to avoid HFCS, I bought multi-grain flakes instead of corn flakes. What do you think? Will this work, or should I try harder to find organic corn flakes or skip the coating altogether?

It should work. I tend to substitute a lot of grains and generally it works out. You might have to experiment with it though. The meat coating (Shake and Bake replacement) using brown rice flour was an adventure in meat in a shell. If you want perfection the first time, probably not going to happen.

There are non-GMO corn flakes out there. I want to say Barbara's make them.

I decided to mix in corn meal with the multigrain flakes so that there would be more corn flavor. It worked out...ok, but Jeff said he would have preferred the corn flakes :p. The quest for cornflakes continues!
