Fantastic!!! Definitely recommend higher heat for crispier turnout.
THIS WAS AWFUL! Between the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and added salt, this is a heart attack in the making… It was soooooo salty. Don’t waste you time or resources on this – unless you’re looking to raise your blood pressure!
I added shredded cheese during last 5 minutes.This was a very good recipe.
