Baked Goat Cheese in Marinara

40 min prepServes 6 people

Ingredients:

  • 8-10 oz Goat Cheese Log
  • 4 TBSP Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste
  • 2 C Favorite Jarred Marinara Sauce
  • 1 C Fresh Cherry Tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 2 TBSP Fresh Basil, thinly sliced
  • Assorted Wellington Crackers for serving

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400.
  2. In a casserole dish, spread the marinara into an even layer. (I used a 9″ round dish)
  3. Place the goat cheese in the center of the marinara, and use a rubber spatuala to spread it out a little. Drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper.
  4. Bake for 15 minute at 400.
  5. Remove from oven, and spread the goat cheese out some more. It will be easier to spread now that it’s warm.
  6. Arrange the cherry tomatoes around the edges of the dish and drizzle everything with more olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  7. Bake an additional 20-25 minutes, or until tomatoes are starting to burst
