I saw this and had to make it. Of course I couldn't have all those calories so I used Calorie Countdown milk and and low fat cheese.Since I don't eat pie crust I used a casserole dish. It turned out real good. I'm glad I liked it since I'll be eating it for a while. Thanks for posting it. Love, Miss Mary
