This was great! I did switch up the veggie... did tomatoes and spinach instead of broccoli, but the same basic idea. What I LOVE is the use of egg whites and a tortilla for the crust ... cuts way down on the carbs and cals! I only needed one tortilla to fill the bottom of my pie plate, mine must have been large. I'll post my photos soon too! Thanks for posting!

Made for PAC Fall '07 Really wonderful recipe. In all fairness I need to disclose my substitutions:Morning Star Vege Bacon Strips for the turkey bacon, soy milk for skim, Tofu Sour Cream (recipe #243214) for fat free sour cream & I chopped my broccoli in a food processor. The calories came out the same. The taste & texture were fantastic! It's lovely on the plate & pairs well w/ a side salad. Will add to my "go to" recipes! Thanks!
