    Are you sure that you counted the olive oil in the calories? When clicking on the calorie breakdown, there's no oil, and it says there's 138 calories from eggs per serving? I'll definitely try the recipe, but something seems wrong with the calorie count... - 9/3/09

    Incredible!
    We loved this. It made a tasty quick meal. I used quinoa instead of rice for the crust. It was awesome. It's going to probably end up as one of our staple dinners. - 3/30/08
