Rita, this is sooooooooo gooooood!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to have it on toasted French bread! It was good when I first made it, I let it sit overnight, and wow! I could probably eat the whole jar full, but I will be patient and eat it all tomorrow! Thanks a million for this one!!!

this is wonderful. i used the tiny fresh mozzarella balls instead of goat cheese and it was great. i know it will be even better next time when i use goat cheese. incredible flavors. the citrus really adds. this is a great make-ahead dish for a dinner party. thanks for sharing a real winner.

I love this. The fresh ingredients are the key, I think. I top a small salad with the goat cheese and use the marinade as dressing; I also add the sundried tomatoes to the marinade. The calories are a bit high, so this is considered a special treat in my house - delicious. Thank you for posting.
