    Very Good
    This was really good. I cut the recipe in half since it's just me but it still turned out wonderfully. Had it for lunch and it was very filling. - 3/6/10

    Good
    I made this for dinner and it was still a nice meal. I made some changes since I did not have egg beaters or cheddar cheese. Still turned out great. I will try again for a brunch and might add more vegetables. - 6/11/09

    Incredible!
    This dish was great for dinner and kept well for breakfast! Can't wait to try with eggplant and other veggies! I left out the shredded cheese, butter, and parmesian to save on cals and lighty sprinkeled a bit over top. Great! - 4/23/09

    Incredible!
    This sounds wonderful! And I am sure it would be good with broccoli or spinach as well. I plan to use it for breakfast, possibly with veggie "sausage." Can't wait! - 3/28/09
