We tried this and were not a big fan of the goat cheese.

I made this exactly as stated--using a whole pita rather than half, and I LOVE this. I used plain goat cheese, next time I might try an herbed goat cheese, but as is, this is such a tasty recipe--a great combo of flavors and very easy and quick. If you like goat cheese and basil pesto, you can't go wrong with this. I did have black and red grapes on the side, and it was a really great light lunch. I'll make this several times more; thanks for submitting this.

I used whole wheat pitas and only used 3 oz. of goat cheese for 3 full pitas. 5 ozs of goat cheese was a little too much in my opinion. I also brushed the tops with some olive oil to make them a bit crispy. Added ham to hubby's and he preferred those. They were super tasty but next time I will add some more veggies, maybe some peppers. We had salads on the side for a good meal.

This sandwich has the perfect balance of flavors and was very easy to make. I was able to make the sandwich while the oven was preheating. I did add a piece of ham to the sandwich but it is equally good without. This recipe is sure to be another favorite for a tasty and quick lunch.

Goat Cheese makes a mouth-wateringly tasty sandwich in this variation on the traditional grilled cheese!!!

This seemed to be a slightly skimpy sandwich. Unfortunately, I discovered that I no longer like goat cheese and DH hates pesto. Not the dish for us.

Thank you for an amazing recipe! Rather than using a pita I used a high fiber whole wheat tortilla and spread the ingredients on one half and then folded over. So easy and so delicious!

I'm not a huge pesto fan, but I enjoyed this a lot. I pretty much just eyeballed the ingredients, and added some shredded romaine lettuce. I'm sure I'll make it again. Thanks, Alesa!

I really liked these sandwiches, and I am not a big sandwich eater. I added some fresh, garlicky broccoli rabe I just happened to have on hand and roasted red peppers instead of the tomatoes.:-)

I make these sandwiches all the time! Sometimes I add spinach, sometimes I use feta if I don't have goat cheese, but the original recipe here is REALLY good.
