The essentials for these moments are familiar staples: salad, tortillas, and breaded steak, paired with fruit, a sweet treat, and a refreshing cold drink. With these basics, a day spent with family and friends becomes effortless and enjoyable.

If one wants to surprise guests with something a bit different, a twist on empanadas works beautifully. Crispy bread crumbs from Mercadona come in a 400-gram pack, priced at €1.70, along with a cereal-based breadcrumb option that adds a crunchy texture.
The ingredients include breadcrumbs, water, sweet paprika, salt, yeast, sugar, turmeric, and cereal. Social media is full of quick videos showing how to mix this crunchy coating to achieve extra crispiness, offering a handy alternative for lives lived on the road or at home.
To prepare, season the meat, set out two plates—one with eggs, milk, salt, and pepper, and another with crispy breadcrumbs. Coat the meat in the liquid mixture, then press it into the breadcrumbs and fry in hot oil. Looking for croquettes? No problem: this product can be used to make them at home, yielding a crispy, delicious result.
How to make your own crunchy breadcrumbs?
Reviews of this Mercadona product on Instagram shed light on how to buy it for home use. A simple approach is to grab a standard shredded breadcrumb and blend in cereal-type grains. Mix everything and you’ll have the extra crunch many crave.
For a healthier option, dry bread can be stored at home and grated by hand or in a food processor. Add chopped grains to create another version of this product. If a different note is desired than cereal, one can grind the kiko and obtain a saltier finish.
