I agree with Christina. When I saw that the recipe called for 2 tbsp dried herbs I knew it would be way too much, so used only 1 tsp. It also needed 30 minutes in the oven for the cheese to start to become golden brown like the photo. It was a bit dry, probably because I used pre-shredded part skim mozzarella. Will make it again if I can find shredded whole milk mozzarella. Too lazy to shred it myself. 😉
