Great! I am trying to low-carb it for a while and still feed 2 hungry teenage boys. They thought these were wonderful. I served it with a cucumber dipping sauce. Thanks for sharing.

This was great! I used ground turkey and added 1 cup of mozarella cheese as well. Whe almost done baking I poured a can of diced tomato and artichoke over it and at this as a meal alone. Thanks!

These turned out very flavorful for us, too. Maybe the other reviewer's didn't turn out because of the type of Greek seasoning used? I used Cavender's and did not need to use the optional salt. I cut back on the oil and used just half a tablespoon and used cooking spray for the pan. I made a quick tzatziki sauce and served with a warm spinach and mushrooms salad. Will definitely make again. Thanks for posting!
