  1. Perfect, lovely, devilishly delicious. I love the sweetness of the honey with the tartness of the lime. (The zest really makes the dressing come alive!) I wasn't sure whether to serve it hot or cold- so I opted for cold.... OMG, delicious!!!!! Thanks so much for an incredible way to jazz up a regular ol' favorite vegetable. Yum!
     
  2. I just made this and WOW is it good! The lime flavor with the goat cheese, the flavor combo is just amazing! I had cut the recipe out of a magazine, and can't remember which one - so I'm glad I did a search before entering it :) Try it you will LOVE IT! I will make this again and again and again...

I'm a native Utahn. Been married 39 years. I like to read, listen to music (right now my favorite it Sarah Brightman also Golden Oldies, unforgettable crooners, music from the 60's, 70's and 80's), going for walks, concerts and plays, movies, going fishing with DH, or just going on scenic rides, most everything with my best friend (DH). I'm also a big scifi fan. My favorite cookbook is Taste of Home's Quick Cooking Magazines and their Annuals. My favorite web site is Recipezaar. If I had a month off I would like to travel. WHAT AM I SAYING!! I'm off all the time. LOL Just no green stuff to use to go traveling. Plus its hard to travel long distances with DH's bad back. My RAK WISH LIST: 1.) I love scented candles.Wouldn't mind trying some of the layered ones. 2.) Different kinds of jams or jellies 3.) Matching chef aprons for DH and me 4.) A note saying Hi! 5.) Chocolate/Candy 6.) Refrigerator Magnets 7.) Unique or Original items from different parts of the Country/World 8.) Scented Bubble Baths, Bath Salts, Moisturizers 9.) Essential oils 10.) Homemade Things 11.) Spices 12.) Music I'm really not a hard person to please (LOL).
