This recipe is a keeper! The cheese was melted and gooey, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I served it with a side of fruit and it was a delicious meal.

I'm not a big fan of cheese, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm glad I did! The cheese was surprisingly good, and the herbs added a lot of flavor. The pastry was also very flaky and delicious.
