CRANBERRY AND PECAN GOAT CHEESE SPREAD
Serving Size: 8
Ingredients
- 8 oz log of your favorite goat cheese. I used honey goat cheese.
- 1/4-1/2 cup cranberry sauce or raspberry preserves
- 1/4-1/3 cup dried cranberries, chopped
- 1/2 cup pecans chopped
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
- 1 TBSP dried or fresh parsley plus extra to taste
Instructions
-
Remove goat cheese from wrapper and allow to soften to room temperature.
-
Spread raspberry preserves on serving platter.
-
Chop the nuts and cranberries and mix together along with parsley and jalapeno.
-
Roll goat cheese in the mixture, pressing gently to coat.
-
Set the goat cheese log atop the cranberry sauce or raspberry preserves and sprinkle with a little extra pecan mixture.
-
Surround with all your favorite crackers, crostini, and veggies.
Notes
I like using the raspberry preserves as I love the combination of raspberry with jalapeno peppers. This would make a beautiful Christmas spread with the red and green colors.
