This dish was very good.  It was indeed a good way to use up that wheat germ I bought months ago for just one recipe!  We will definitely have it again.  The next time, I'll cook it on a rack elevated above the cookie sheet - cooked it on a baking sheet and the bottom got a little mushy, but the top was nice and crisp.
