Very good. I used the whole package of sausage and spinach so used less of the half and half/egg mixture. Thanks for sharing!

This was a great recipe -- simple to follow and easy to put together and it tastes great! I made it for an office potluck. We used a combination of pepper-jack and colby/jack for the cheese. The pepper-jack gave it a great kick.
