I loved this but I cut way back on the cheese. It didn't need to be high fat to taste good. I used 1 1/2 oz good quality Goat Cheese and only about 3/4 oz Parmesan.

This recipe is really good, it has new flavor for me. I cooked the lentil in beef stock and then I used that to cook the rice. Also I replaced the arugula with spinach and it tern out really good.
I will make it again.

Recipe is reaaly good, but there is a way to simplify this a lot. Used canned lentils (15 ounce, and Seeds of Change brown rice/quinoa with garlic microwave in the pouch blend. Added sundried tomatoes, left out the mint (don't like.

This recipe is FABULOUS. It is a lot of work, though. I recommend making the cooked rice and cooked lentils earlier in the week instead of on top of everything else. This really made the process easier for me. I also substituted spinach for the arugula and parsley for the mint, but only because I had these on hand already. Again, the result is amazing. (esp if you like goat cheese The lentils and brown rice have a consistency similar to ground beef, which was great for my dad and boyfriend who eat meat.

I've never had goat cheese before, so I was totally open to this recipe since Giada uses goat cheese alot & I love her recipes. I agree with previous reviewers that this is ALOT of work, & thanks for the heads up. I followed the recipe to the T & found it "interesting". Is goat cheese tart like lemon? I found this to be on the tart side, & perhaps more salt was needed, but I had added extra salt before stuffing. Who knows because I never had goat cheese before & nothing to compare it to.

This meal was good, i think i might substitute some of the ingredients next time though. I'm thinking i'm going to use white rice instead of brown and maybe some type of bean instead of the lentils, the goat cheese was great though. I had no problem with the swiss chard leaves, can't wait to make this dish again, just more towards my taste (:

This is the best vegetarian dish I have ever tasted! I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of substituting arugula for spinach due to availability. I was skeptical about the mint but you don't even taste anything "minty" or realize it's there, it just adds a freshness to the dish. The filling itself was so creamy and flavorful from the goat cheese I could have had eaten it by itself ;- it's a pretty time consuming dish, so it would be a good meal to make it you're in a cooking mood on your day off. I had no problem with the swiss chard leaves, I just blanched them 1 at a time using thongs to avoid problems that others had. Will definitely be making again!

This is fantastic! I've been trying to eat more meatless dishes, and this will be in regular rotation. Tastes like a restaurant meal.

Very tasty, but too much mint! I think I will use 1/4 cup next time. I also used chicken broth to boil the lentils to give them more flavor. The leaves weren't an issue, but they only need 5 seconds or so. I boiled them all at once then poured them into a sieve and rinsed with water - worked fine. My meat loving fiance loved them, very filling.
