I just made these and froze them. Like in NurseDi's someone else had a problem with them spreading out like cookies. Even though I breaded them, they spread out a little bit. I think this needs a little less moisture and more dry. Maybe try ranch mix instead of the dressing. I might make these again but make quite a few changes.

Since April 2008, I have been a vegetarian. I dont eat creatures...that's the easiest way to put it! :D I still eat a small amount of dairy, but not very much. I have been missing around here for a while, and hope to poke my head in a bit more often from now on... I hope you enjoy my recipes...
