    I don't like ham so I prepared it without ham. It was still delicious, and is a keeper.

    I love endive. I grill it often in the summer. This recipe is wonderful and can easily be modified to suit whats in the fridge. Many comments are made by those not familiar with endive. It has a slightly bitter taste that you either like or don't. If you do like endive... this recipe/technique is a keeper! Keep this show!

    I used turkey slices instead of ham (all I had on hand and it was delicious. The endive makes it sophisticated and the bechamel/cheese make it comforting. Once again Amy is able to slip in a lesson on technique - making a basic bechamel sauce - so we come away not only with a new recipe but also a basic technique. Hope Food Network renews this show!

    This was very easy to make, and it looked and tasted delicious. My husband and son didn't really care for the endive (I've never used endive or gruyere before either, but they liked the rest. Next time, I'll use fewer endive (I liked it, and substitute broccoli or asparagus for the rest. Thanks for the great recipes you're sharing.

    First time user of gruyere cheese and first time user of endive......both my husband and I LOVED this recipe.....it has such a subtle and silky taste. We will definitely make it again......if someone wants a more American taste, I'm sure asparagus would do in place of endive and cheddar cheese would also do for the sauce ......but I must say we found this recipe to be superb!

    My parents are french and I grew up with this dish. I was delighted to see it on the show. The only difference with the one my mother made is she used half gruyere and half emmenthal or comte cheese.

    I don't trust any of the reviews who are giving these recipes five stars! This turns out slimy, and the cheese is just awful My 13 year old said it smelled like the boys lockerroom at school and I could not disagree. Amy may have her fanatic reviewers here. but they obviously are not eating this stuff.

    The recipe came out great. It was beautiful, however, I found out that I don't like endive as much as I would have thought. If you like it this is a great recipe, just not for me.

    I never had endive before and I hadn't come across a recipe that inspired me to try it ... until now. I figured that anything covered in ham and cheese has got to be good ... and it was. In fact, it was delicious! The mushroom salad was perfect with it. Forget brunch ... this makes a nice, light meal any time of day. Thanks Amy!
