Personal Story:
Julie came up with this recipe just so she could use the name. But it turned out to be one of her favorites! Spinach, eggs, ham and cheese are a great combo. These are really intensely flavoured little bites. We love her recipes because they work and she speaks to the reader as if she were in the room. www.dinnerwithjulie.com
