These nuggets are easy to make, fry in no time, and are versatile as far as seasoning. You may add other seasonings to the Italian bread crumbs or use plain bread crumbs and add other seasonings.

These are really good. I usually chill mine for the standing time to keep the cheese firm. Thanks for the post!
