These were great! I dont know what people are talking about with the egg being messy, mine turned out wonderfully and tasted great! I made them for a cocktail party and they were perfect as I served them warm, but still taste amazing once they cool down. Definitely a great recipe that I will be keeping and making again and again!

Egg was messy!! Was more like a mini omelet than a tart. Probably will not make again.

Yum! These were tasty, fast, and easy to make. I didn't have Monterey Jack cheese, so I used a combination of mozzarella and cheddar. The egg wasn't very messy, but I baked these for about 25 minutes at 420* (my oven never sets the exact temp you want, it's always off about five degrees.) And, once you let them cool like specified, they harden up a bit, so they shouldn't be soggy at all. So good, I'll be making this again, thanks Jim.

I love this recipe - I am a big fan of jalapeno pie and this is a great alternative. Much lower on the carbs! This is so easy and the little 'tarts' are delicious. I make these all the time now to have on hand for a grab and go breakfast or for an afternoon snack. I like them at room temp or even cold from the frig. I also prefer to make these in muffing tins.

These are a favorite with my family for parties and as a fun side for mexican dishes. The egg is less messy if you take your time pouring it in from a measuring cup. It is tedious but SO worth it!

I have made these over and over again for the last year. They are a spectacular way to use up all of the peppers in my garden. I just add the raw cut up garden peppers (Jalapenos, habaneros or whatever else is on hand)then follow the same recipe. This is also good with cilantro instead of the parsley. I have also done this with a TSP Garlic salt, TB of Cumin and a TB of coriander for a Mexican twist. This recipe has never let me down no matter how I switch it up.

Really delicious. Used cheddar instead of monterey jack, and was very careful when pouring the egg. Loved 'em!
