This is a great recipe Julie. I can personally recommend this dish, as I have served it to my family twice and they all went back for seconds!
This looks yummy ! I will try it tonight.
You can also do it with gluten free flour... We call it Vege Bake in our house! Freezes so well, in individual portions for lunch or dinner for one!
I use that same recipe!! lol
Hi Julie
I have one of these in the oven right now... only no bacon and I had mozzarella cheese that needed using up. I like the fact that it is so easy to add whatever you have on hand and leave out what you don't, except eggs I guess.
Anyway, it's smelling pretty good.
A popular recipe in our household too, which I make using spelt flour.
Great to see your blog mentioned in the current issue of 'Notebook' magazine, Julie. How lovely for you!
Cheers, Bronwyn.
This sounds yummy. I'm always on the lookout for recipes and i'm definitly going to try this one.

This recipe has been a favourite in our house for many years. We make it without bacon and add carrot for colour and cover the top with slices of ripe tomato - yum! I'm going to have to make one (or two), it's been too long!
Hi guys,
I'm glad to hear that we're not the only ones still enjoying this 70's classic ;-)
Hey Dixiebelle, thanks for the tip :-)
Bronwyn, thanks for the heads up! Great article about Rich and Ally! Must try the slice with spelt flour now that I have some.
Hi Deb,
I hope your slice turned out :-)
Hi Holly,
I often make it with tomato on top too, especially if I've added olives, it's yum isn't it?
Cheers, Julie
