This is delicious and easy but I definitely use LESS BUTTER ... one to two tablespoons is quite enough!! I also used 1 bag of fresh chopped spinach. I like the idea of the mini muffin tins too!

I loved this. If I make it again, I might half the recipe, use low-fat cheese, and use mini muffin tins!
