Notes
Substitutions: Greek yogurt or sour cream can replace mayonnaise for a lighter option. Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free crackers instead of Ritz. Extra Crispiness: Broil for the last 1-2 minutes of baking for added crunch, watching carefully to prevent burning. Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
