Excellent flavor! I also doubled the eggs and spinach and put it in a 10x10 casserole dish instead of a crust just to take away some of the calories. My husband gave it a 9.

This was so good! I can't wait til I'm hungry again so I can eat my leftover slice :)

This is a GREAT recipe. I double the spinach and eggs, but other than that leave it the same.

Great recipe! Tastes great, and is easy to put together. I may try just making the filling sometime and not put it in a crust......I'm always on the look-out for lower carb dishes for my boyfriend, who is losing weight by cutting down on carbs. Another great recipe from Barbara McCalley, whose chicken and mushroom dish is on my list of favorites!

Found this in one of my Taste of Home magazines years ago. Been making it ever since. It's one of my husbands favorites and my kids even rave about it. I usually make two at a time and have even mixed it up a bit by using spinach in one and broccoli in the other. Very Good!!!

This is the second time I have made this recipe and it has turned out yummy. I cut down the mayo to 1/2 cup and used swiss cheese and the taste was still great. I think I will add some chopped mushrooms next time. :)

I added feta cheese instead of cheddar cheese and put a little oregano into the egg mixture to give a mediterranian taste.

Really good! Great dish for when you're bringing someone a meal. Rich and flavorful. Although for some reason my husband doesn't like it.
