I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the chicken broth and used vegetable broth instead. It was delicious!

I'm allergic to goat cheese, so I used feta instead. It was still very good.

This recipe was a bit too rich for my taste. I might try it again with less goat cheese.

I thought the recipe was a little bland. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

My orzo turned out a little mushy, but the flavor was still good.

I wasn't sure how the goat cheese would taste with the other ingredients, but it was surprisingly good. I'll definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of garbanzo beans, but this recipe changed my mind. They were cooked perfectly and added a nice texture to the dish.
