Used fat free ranch and corn flake crumbs, thought it was a little dry - but I would used lower temp next time 375 degrees

This is so simple and quick to fix! The entire family loved it. Even the 5 yr. old can help to make it.! Reheats nicely without making cornflakes soggy.

I cook lunch for a bunch of hungry guys. They love this recipe. I like to buy the dry ranch dressing packets and make my dressing from scratch. I save half of it and serve it with a lettuce salad for a quick and satisfing meal.

Nothing spectacular about this. My kids complained about it, so I probably won't be making again. Thanks, though.
