This had a really good texture, with the good looks or a "souffle." I love how neatly it slices. I will add a extra sharp cheese to boost up the cheese flavor next time. I couldn't tell if I overbaked by a few min. since it has a very "set/formed" texture, but it holds up excellently in the refrigerator. Both my teens ate it without complaint. Thanks Toni, for posting. Roxygirl
