  Mint would also be a good alternative to tarragon and riccota cheese.

  This tastes great and is very simple, but looks like you've made the effort. I've normally got most of the ingredients in the house, all I need to get are fresh herbs. the herbs really add something. Everyone loves these, even the non-veggies

  Can anybody tell me if I can make this the day before and chill overnight? Or will the pastry go soggy when cooking? Thanks.

  I was looking forward to making this for Christmas but have just worked out the calories per serving. Even with light cream cheese it works out at 1359 calories per serving! I'm really disappointed as it looks really nice.
