GOAT CHEESE BLUEBERRY TOAST

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough or whole grain works well)
• 4 oz (about 113g) goat cheese, softened
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 2 tablespoons honey
• Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
• A drizzle of balsamic glaze (optional)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Toast the bread slices to your desired level of crispiness.

2. Mash Blueberries into Goat Cheese:

• In a bowl, mash the fresh blueberries with a fork until they are partially crushed. Add the softened goat cheese to the bowl and mix until the blueberries are evenly distributed throughout the goat cheese.

3. Spread blueberry goat cheese mixture onto each slice of toasted bread.

4. Drizzle honey over the blueberry and goat cheese mixture on each slice. The honey adds a touch of sweetness that complements both the tartness of the blueberries and the savory goat cheese.

5. Garnishes (Optional):

• For an extra burst of flavor and freshness, garnish your Goat Cheese Blueberry Toast with fresh mint leaves. The mint adds a delightful herbal note that enhances the overall experience.
• Balsamic Glaze: If you want to add a sophisticated touch, drizzle a small amount of balsamic glaze over the top. The balsamic glaze adds a slightly tangy and sweet element that elevates the flavor profile.

Serve and Enjoy!
