Excellent recipe the only problem i ran into was the jalapenos i used were overbearing in taste they drowned out the taste of cheese but i roasted the jalapenos and that helped very much! I also substituted the milk for eggs because the bread crums were not sticking. Thank You very much for posting this recipe!
