Very good! Didn't add so many sundried tomatoes...6 oz. seemed like A LOT. Was a little short on goat cheese but had a really good flavor. Would like to try with some leftover grilled chicken, too!

Very good. We altered the ratio of ingredients a little based on what we had, but it's delicious. The goat cheese makes the dish.
