FRESH GOAT CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• In a small bowl with a fork, mash goat cheese with enough cream to make a spreadable consistency. Add basil, green onion, garlic, and salt, to taste. Mix well. Garnish with fresh nasturtium flowers, if available, and serve with warm tortillas alongside. To eat, spread a few spoonfuls of goat cheese mixture inside a tortilla and roll up.

GOAT & CREAM CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• First cut your bread and spray lightly with garlic Pam and toast in the broiler until golden brown. In the meantime, mix the goat and the cream cheeses together, then add your spices, adding more if you want a very strong flavor. Let sit for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to blend.
• Take out your warm bread and spread with the cheese mixture, you can top with a little salsa or warmed pizza sauce. I usually make a bowl of spread, small bowls of sauce & salsa, and serving platter with the bread on it and place on the buffet and let the guests make their own. It is so easy and its also good stuffed inside celery :).
