We all loved this. Only changes...I didn't have any bread crumbs so I crushed Caesar Croutons and added the melted butter. Loved it. I also left out the onions and sprinkled the top lightly with garlic salt. We'll definitely be making this again. Thank you.

My entire family loved this recipe. I was a little concerned about the onion, but we all thought it added a great flavor. I used Panko bread crumbs and the top was excellent. Will save this recipe and use over and over. Definitely one of my 9 year old's new favs.

I did not like the onion flavor all through the dish. Next time I try it I will leave that out.
