Brown rice makes the crust fall apart. Just use crust next time. Frozen spinach takes WAY too much time to pat dry. I didn't have too much of a problem with it, but family didn't like it that much. Said it had too much spinach taste in it. (I think due to frozen spinach) Try different recipe - 6/12/12
