    Good - I really enjoyed. Threw in some left over vegetables I had from another recipe. Reheated REALLY well, which is always a bonus. Just found it a little lacking in spices or flavor. I used hot sauce which helped. - 6/14/09

    I will be trying this one tonight. No mention of bread crumbs in the ingredients. I assume that the bread crumbs and stuffing mix mentioned in the list of ingredients would be the same thing? - 11/26/09

    I used olive oil instead of butter - worked well. I added minced garlic, white pepper, and dried thyme which gave it some spice. I'll try it will added veggies next time. - 7/4/09
