    Really look forward to trying this. As there is flax in the crust I would leave it out of the filling as 25g of fat is too much. Perhaps you could put in a recommendation on which herbs to use. A couple of leaves of fresh basil maybe? Thanks for posting. - 2/22/11

    That's high calorie for a broccoli dish. Tahini is fatty. - 11/6/18

    I know broccoli is good for us but I rarely eat it raw, maybe just little bits in some salads but never a whole serving because it does tend to have a really strong flavor raw. My boyfriend tasted it because I made him & he liked it. He does not follow the raw food diet so that was a compliment. - 2/22/11
