This was actually good but I made fairly significant changes so I don't think I can give four stars. For one thing green chile and feta cheese are really not terribly good together. I substituted a combination of bleu cheese sharp cheddar and parmegiano-reggiano with some sundried tomatoes and essentially followed the recipe as is. Like I said it was pretty good and with a few more tweaks could be excellent. Trust me though feta cheese and green chile are a very strange-tasting combination and the resulting aftertaste may put you off which would be a shame because this is a very good basic recipe.

Turned out great! I used fresh hatch chiles... yumm! I made a few subs as suggested by others. I used crumbled tofu instead of feta (similar texture) Asiago instead of Monterrey Colby instead of Cheddar and 4 eggs rather than 3. I also added some spices - crushed red pepper paprika chili powder cumin etc. I had small pie crusts so this mix was enough for two. Thanks for the recipe! Read More

Oh this was SO cheesy...just decadent! I made it exactly as the recipe is written feta cheese and all. I love feta cheese! It didn't taste strange at all with the other cheeses and the green chile peppers. I highly recommend this recipe and will make it again and again! Thanks so MUCH for the great recipe! Read More

I love this recipe!! It is so hearty and extremely easy to make. I made two cause I make slices in the morning and eat it on my way to work when I am in a hurry which is most of the time. The only thing I did different is I added mushrooms and I had a ham steak that I cut into bite size pieces and it was really delicious. Next time I might try ground sausage. Love this thanks alot Read More

This was really good. I left out the feta and added shitake mushrooms. We had it for dinner although I think it would be delicious for breakfast too. Read More

I substituted goat for the feta cheese. Next time I would only use a pinch of onions and would have added another vegetable! It was almost like onion quiche. Read More
