Hi dojemi, wonderfully fantastic! We enjoyed these "puffs" thoroughly! We made as posted except for the fact that I added grated onions to the spinach, a touch of nutmeg(have always used it with spinach)and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Slight amount of tweaking, sorry. However, I thank you for sharing, Diane :=)
