This was good but probably not one that I will try again. The flavors didn't seem to go together for us!

This didn't go over well with my family like I thought it would.

Not quite what I thought it would be.

This really sounded good to me, but it didn't come together like I thought it would. I guess it's just one of those personal preference recipes... Either you like it or you don't like it at all, and in this case it was the latter for us. Sorry for so few stars this time!

We did not like the Gouda cheese or the sweetness of the preserves and honey. I thought I would give it a shot, but it wasn't for us!
