I made this for Thanksgiving breakfast, it is delicious, easy and fun to eat. I served it with crispy bacon and fresh fruit. Everyone loved it. It will be a recipe that I make over and over again.

Hello Sarah, this recipe is great! We made them for Father's Day, when we had a small brunch and these were the WOW factors. We have an all Cuban community of residents' here at the nursing home with the exception of a few and they just loved them! I used 4 oz onion & chive cream cheese & the other 1/2 plain & also added a pinch or two of red pepper flakes for that extra kick! Then a little nutmeg for the spinach but just a tiny bit. I loved the recipe and I hope your not upset with me tweaking it a bit Thanks for posting, this one is a keeper and is going to be a part of the Cafe Ponce's Menu. Hugz, Diane :)
