Chessy Hotdog Prata Bakes



Tuna Prata Bakes



Get this superb idea from one of e mommy (Yogurt) from M4M (millions thanks to her!). Get the instant prata (i buy chianatown brand), thaw it for a while...cut it up and shape it into watever ways you want.. Play around with different fillings.. apple pie filling..chicken mayo.. sausage..etc .. bake it at 180 c at 30mins..and voila.

Tried the cheesy hotdog on Sat, it was easy and nice..no mess at all. When DH first taste it, he asked me which pastry shop did i bot....bwhaaa than he was quite amazed when i told him that i actually baked it but after he knew the trick is from the instant prata...he "chey" me all the way :(

Let Cerilynn played with the tuna fillings on Sunday. I quarter the prata and let C to form in any shape she want. It superb easy and she like it :D

Going to play with other fillings nx wkend :D
