Notes

Had a couple in for dinner last night. These sounded good and they were. Next time I will cut back just a little on the cream cheese as they did not maintain their shape as the cheese melted. Definitely be doing these again. Since we are cutting back on sodium intake we did not add the 1/2 teaspoon of salt figuring there was enough in the onion soup mix and there was.
