Combine the first 4 ingredients; spoon into a lightly greased baking dish.

Crush the crackers. (I used my hands) Melt the butter and pour over the crackers and mix.

So easy and delicious!  I served mine with steamed broccoli, but you could also serve over rice or potatoes if you need to stretch the meal out even more.
