I am a retired caterer. I have used this recipe for many years. Everyone I have served it too seems to just love it and always come back for seconds. The Ritz cracker crumbs were used many years ago as a last minute substitute for saltines. I think this was a one of my best substitutes ever. Needless to say I never used saltines again. I hope you enjoy!
