    I made this using fresh mozzerella and fresh basil and oregano. Delicious! Great way to use up all those tomatoes from the garden! - 8/24/09

    I made this with feta cheese instead of the asiago, and it was fabulous! - 7/9/08

    Delicious with homegrown tomatoes and subbing in goat cheese for the asiago. Also topped with grate smoked gouda. Yum! Pre-baking the crust helped out with the sogginess a bit, too. - 5/17/10

    This was a great lunch. We ate it with a simple salad and a sugar free jello for dessert. My kids really liked it as well. We thought that adding some sliced, marinated artichoke hearts or some sliced summer squash would taste great as well!! - 2/18/08

    I had a bit of a problem with the crust being soggy. I tried roma tomatoes and, problem solved! Loved it! - 12/6/09

    In our family, we rate meals on a scale of 1-10 so I know to make again or not. This was a 9! I made it with leftover pepperjack from a party and it was SO full of cheezy goodness. :) - 10/1/09

    Great flavor. I would definitely make this again with roma tomatoes (reg. tomatoes were too watery) , red onions, and perhaps some red bell pepper, too. - 12/30/09

    I don't like basil so used thin sliced red onion. About any kind of cheese will work. I will make again. - 10/2/09
  • CALIDREAMER76
    Sounds wonderful - I think the addition of garlic (maybe some pre-roasted) would only enhance it. - 9/30/09
