Thanks Jennifer! It's funny, as soon as I posted that, I saw at the bottom where it list other threads on similar topics, and the recipe was there! The recipe you posted looks like a half recipe to the one I found... it uses the Deep Dish Baker. I don't have the oval or the deep dish baker. I just have the rectangular baker. Do you think that's too big? I guess I could put it in a pyrex (shh!) dish I have that is the right size.... sigh...
