    I agree this is a great recipe. I used parsley instead of the onion and added 1 tsp old bay seasoning. - 7/7/11

    I decided to try this recipe when I saw it used flax meal instead of bread crumbs or oats. What a great idea!! It turned out very well, and my husband liked it a lot!! I will use flax meal as a binder in other recipes since I can't eat wheat or oats. - 9/26/12
