  1. This was really yummy. The only thing I did different was added a little mustard to the egg mixture, and it turned out great. It reminded me of Chick-Fil-A.
     
  2. My husband was skeptical as he isn't the pretzel fan I am but he LOVED it. It was so easy -- timing for cooking was perfect, it came out beautiful, and delicious. We probably had about 1 cup of pretzel crumbs for two boneless breasts and had just enough to coat. I threw the extra on top and then poured what stayed in the frying pan into the baking pan. Because I poured in the oil too (I used olive oil) I did have to blot the breasts on paper towels before serving. It didn't need any other spice, sauce or anything. Terrific recipe!
     
  3. This was a delicious recipie! I thought 3 cups was a bit too much though I had a ton of crushed pretzels left over lol. :) Thanks though it is a great recipe!

I love ones with pictures and love, love TOH ones. I have got my famous tilapia with jasmine rice published in TOH and have a few published in some GBP. I will find any excuse to buy a cookbook lol. I like practical cookbooks, nothing strange or difficult. Simple ordinary everyday family recipes.</p> <p><br /><br /><img src=http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/8283/mybannerglitter0bf587ff.gif border=0 alt=Create your own banner at mybannermaker.com! /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v51/tiggrr34/Graphics/HolidayOrnamentSwapTag2011-4.jpg alt= width=200 height=266 /></p>
