     While trying to get more greens in my program I decided to try this. It is excellent. Based on the respones I read, I added chopped garlic and onions to the oil when I cooked the greens. Used Panko for the bread crumbs and brown rice instead of white. But really enjoyed. - 7/16/09

     I made this with spinach and zucchini, I added garlic and onion and mixed the cheese in. I made a smaller casserole. I used homemade whole grain breadcrumbs andbrown rice served with a side of tzaziki sauce (froma recipe on this site). It was delicious! - 2/12/08

     I used Egg Beaters with this and topped it with wheat germ instead of bread crumbs, used light cheese. Cut the cholestrol and fat way back. - 2/1/08

     I added Rocket (could also use Watercress) for a peppery flavour. Excellent dish for boosting iron but BAD for cholesterol! I used wild rice, 3 eggs + 3 tablespoons single cream (low-fat variety) - worked well and quite tasty. - 2/1/08

     I followed the recipe exactly and even added the grated Zucchini but this was just bland, bland, bland. - 3/15/07

     I used leftover brown rice and mixed in some kale. I sprinkled on vegan parmesan and no one in my family noticed. Considering it was the first time any of us had collards it was a decent introduction. I'll probably make it again, but just for myself. No one else is willing to eat greens again. - 5/26/12

     Very good. Next time I'll add onions and garlic as others have suggested. I used whole grain bread crumbs, brown rice, kale, collard greens, and spinach. - 1/17/12

     Oh these sound wonderful! I want to try this and soon. I bet my son would enjoy it too. Several have already answered the first thought I immediately had, when I wondered if panko would work in place of the bread crumbs! Thanks ya'll! - 2/2/11

     The Cholesterol, Sodium & Carbs concern me. Perhaps using egg beaters to reduce the cholesterol, stir frying with cut up turkey bacon & onions for flavo, leave out the bread crumbs & salt, but add fresh cilantro & parsley. I would use brown rice & definitely grated zucchini & carrots too! - 2/1/08

     The calorie count on this recipe is certainly attractive. I would need a few more spices to make it work for me. Thank you for sharing. - 2/1/08

     Haven't made it, but I bet it would be much improved with a little salt and fresh minced garlic. - 7/28/07
