  The Mascarpone Makes this dish Excellent! Dont be afraid to add a tad bit more.

  Fresh tasting and lots of fresh veg but go easy on the lemon. Easy midweek meal.

  This was lovely and light, but lacked a bit of punch. I felt it needed quite a lot of seasoning to pick it up. Was tasty cold as leftovers.

  Tasty lunch, the fresh basil really brightens it up. A bit too much lemon but easily counteracted with another generous sprinkle of Parmesan.

  Cooked this for my little boys' lunch and they are loving it. They are currently polishing off the last half of their second serving. Had to use what I had on hand & made substitutions: used a dollop of soured cream in place of mascarpone, used approx. 2 tbsp. grated medium cheddar in place of parmesan, drizzled a tbsp EV olive oil, & just did a couple squeezes of the lemon. I imagine some lemon zest would've given the dish a bit more zing. I, too, enjoyed this as it was light yet tasty.

  Not bad at all. A great base for adapting. I added chopped chilli and spinach and next time will increase the parmesan.

  Delicious! I used broad beans, petit pois, and french beans. For the soft cheese, I used medium fat Philly. Will definitely make again, and probably ring the changes as far as the vegetables are concerned.

  I make a similar version of this with pesto, but thought I'd give this one a go with mascarpone. Have to say, it wasn't half as tasty. Fortunately I realised before serving, so added a good dollop of pesto too, which saved it. I think Philadelphia instead of mascarpone might improve this, as Philly has a bit more flavour.

  Whilst this was quite fresh tasting because of the lemon, it wasn't particularly tasty....and seemed to lack flavour...will try again and add pesto as advised above.
