Leila and I tried this today and it was exceptional. It’s an unintuitive, unique mix of flavor, which makes it a recipe for awesome. The only thing even resembling a downside was that our thyme wasn’t flowering like in your pictures.

I made this for dinner last night. It was delicious and it felt very wholesome and virtuous! I couldn’t find short grain brown rice so I used medium grain – it was fine. I also halved it and used pecorino instead of goats cheese. I’m going to make this again for sure!

I made this with gnocchi (purchased, not homemade), instead of rice. Delicious!

Oh. Man. This is the most delicious-sounding recipe I’ve seen all week (and I read a LOT of recipes). Between my kitchen and my garden, I have everything but the bay leaf. This looks like the perfect Sunday dinner.

Love your shot of the basil bud! This definitely looks like good summer eating. And you don’t even have to turn on the oven.

I am so with you. Whenever I return from vacation, all I want is whole grains, a bit of tofu, and lots of steamed broccoli. This looks terrific any time.

This looks interesting, I would try it but my husband and 16yr old son don’t like green olives. I think they make the dish what it is. Do you think you could post a recipe for the poutine?
