This was good and very easy to make. I used more spinach (had 16 oz, so used it all), fat-free feta and whole grain tortillas. My only complaint is a small one -- even taking into account that I used more spinach, a 10" skillet is a little on the small side to properly accomodate all of the ingredients. I'll use a larger skillet next time to avoid getting spinach goop all over my stove trying to stir the mixture. DW said she would have liked more cheese although she would say that if I topped a pound of cheese with a little spinach mixture *LOL*. That being said, she balked at the idea of using feta, so I guess the fact that she asked for more cheese means that she actually liked the taste of feta. Definitely a make again.
