Made this for dinner tonight. It was delicious! I made it almost as instructed. The exceptions being that I didn't have rosemary, fresh or dried, so I used Italian seasoning instead. Oh, and I added some fresh minced garlic. Had to bake an additional 5-7 minutes also. We loved it! Very quick and easy to prepare.

Great for brunch! I made half the recipe, added some red bell peppers with the onions, and otherwise followed the recipe. Under the broiler, it puffed up at bit just before it was done. Very good but DH said he'd rather have cheddar cheese. I'd like this with either cheese. Very easy and good.
