    Very yummy and filling! If you are not sure what seasonings to use, I used 2 heaping tsp ranch seasoning mix, 2 tsp crushed red pepper, 2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. My family dipped these in ranch dressing and hot sauce.
    They are also great to serve with a salad!

    The recipe only makes 8 4 oz servings...the nutritional value is incorrect. Misleading as 1 patty is almost 2 servings. - 4/21/09

    An old favorite, but I just use egg white, omit cheese, add raw veggies and bake in the oven. - 5/28/09

    This entree is tasty but extra flavor is needed. I threw in several cloves of garlic, some black pepper, and an orange bell pepper. Also, I didn't want to add the oil from frying, so I cooked this on my George Foreman grill. The results weren't pretty. The patties crumbled a bit but were very yummy. - 4/13/08

    This sound like a great recipe. But wouldn't the "nutrition info" be different depending on whether you used the flax or the psyllium or breadcrumbs? And the breadcrumbs; there are great differences in the nutrition of different kinds. I will measure each ingredient and figure it out myself. - 7/31/09

    You may want to correct the name of this recipe. Crquet is the game, croquettes are the food. Of course, some cooks may use their croquettes for croquet! - 3/30/07

    We loved this. I cut it in half, the 2 of us didn't need 12 patties. But I think I may try topping with a salsa maybe even my zucchini salsa. I plan on keeping this on my dinner list. - 4/23/09

    My husband made these for our lunch today. Pretty good! We'd cook it again and add a tiny bit of fresh parsley finely ground for flavor. We used a store-baked chicken and threw out the bones, skin, and excess fat. My son liked it, too! - 3/26/09

    I combined this recipe and another one bc I found this one lacked flavor and it seemed to need more bread crumbs. When I made it the way the recipe says, it was not sticking together at all, but when I added a total of 3/4 c bread crumbs it was the perfect consistency-just like meatloaf! Good reci - 3/1/16

    I do these in the oven. I also sub Parmesan cheese because I can use less and it has more flavor. Plenty of garlic and herbs get added too. They freeze well so I can pop a few out to take for lunch - 10/27/12

    This was good, but I found they fall apart very easily. Next time, I'll probably use an extra egg, and more breadcrumbs to hold them together. They also need some extra seasoning. Chopped garlic is great in them! - 12/1/10

    I tried this last night and I loved them! It made about 8 patties. I added chili powder, minced garlic, garlic salt with parsley and some pepper. Could have used a bit more seasoning, but I put sour cream on top and also some salsa and they were so filling! Leftovers for snacks! - 8/4/10

    Yummy! My kids LOVED them. I had mine on top of a big salad. Kids just dipped in ranch. I used 2 cans of chicken. I added 2 cloves of garlic, a few shakes of chicken seasoning and sauted in pan w/ Pam until crispy on the outside. Also added 2 Tbs ground flaxseed to the mix and used egg beaters. - 6/29/10
