  1. We'll use more goat cheese if we make this again. The neufchatel really neutralizes the flavor of the goat cheese as written.
     
  2. This was a nice, simple dish that was quick to prepare on a hectic week night. We liked it. I substituted cream cheese for neufchatel, but otherwise followed all directions as stated. I thought the taste of the goat cheese and fresh lemon really came through in this dish. Thanks!
     
  3. this was good. i made it with veggie broth and more goat cheese. thanks.
     
  4. this is wonderful! the only thing i changed was to eliminate the red bell pepper, i realize that it would add color to the dish, but i can't get a bell pepper of any color past my lips. i did add a pinch more of goat cheese. great recipe!!!!
