This is a good microwave recipe. For those trying it, remember microwaves have different powers. The wattage on my is around 1200, so at 4-1/2 minutes at 80% power this dish was overdone. I think next time I will stop at 3-1/2 minutes. Seasoning was perfect for the size of this dish. I used wheat bread, 1 lg egg and skim milk. Did not use the optional Worcestershire sauce. All other ingredients were used. This would be a fun dish to play around with the meats. Maybe a chopped up beef breakfast patty or sausage patty. I like cheese so I could see me using a spicy mexican style pepper jack or sharp cheddar in this recipe. Made for Bargain Basement Tag Game 2010.
