    I agree that it took a little longer - more like an hour, but worth it. Very good - added a few of my favorite spices, and the spinach/feta mixture is rich, but not overpowering. Nice recipe, will make again - my boyfriend loves it too! - 4/27/10

    My husband didn't like the spinach, but I did. I added capers to the receipe and red pepper, cause I like it spicy. It was good. yum! :-) - 1/20/08

    I tried this recipe and was very pleased, but instead of just Parsley I added fresh rosemary, thyme and sage, just scrumptious! I would recommend cooking a bit longer, it took an hour to fully cook my bird. - 3/20/07
