This was delicious and it made me feel like a pro at making souffle. It puffed beautifully and the taste was very good. I used fat free half and half for the cream - it was creamy without the fat. Thank you for posting this.

I followed this recipe as it is stated and it was absolutely delicious! Even my children ate it! I will make it again and again. I used a box of frozen spinach and just defrosted it in the microwave. Thank you for the great recipe.

Made some changes--shallots instead of onions; half parmesan, half bleu cheese; made the souffle in individual ramekins--they were gorgeous--puffed up beuatifully, lloked fabulous, tasted better.
