This recipe didn't have the texture I expected. My cheese stayed in cubes instead of melting nicely. Followed directions exactly. Overall, too many calories that aren't quite compensated for by taste.

Delicious! This was so easy to put together, and we finished off the whole recipe in one day. This made 6 servings for us, but we were probably taking extra-large helpings. By the way, I used only 2 tb of flour (we're trying to be low-carb), and it came out fine. It's so nice to find a vegetarian crock pot recipe...thanks for posting this!

I made the following subs: 2 cups of fat free cottage cheese, 1/2 cup Smart Balance Light buttery spread, 8 ounces lowfat cheddar, 3 egg whites. This turned out amazing, and the above subs cut the calories per serving in half. Really easy to make, and really delicious. I had to drain a lot of liquid from the pot when it was done, probably because I didn't drain the spinach well enough to start, but that didn't take away from it at all. And it's so good for you! I'll definitely make this again.

All I can say is I hate it when I go back for seconds and there's none left. It's just not right. I made this exactly as written and it was perfect. Everybody loved it! I'm gonna make my own darn batch next time. LOL!!
