Directions
Bacon Wrapped Dates With Almonds and Goat Cheese, Another great Saveur recipe The already sweet dates caramelize in the oven, inbued with the smoky goodness of the bacon then you bite into it-it’s soft, and gooey, giving way to a even gooier , creamy center and then you get a surprising little crunch from the salty almond MMMMM These went over well at my B-day even among those that claimed to dislike goat cheese (suggestions were made about subbing cream cheese, but I didn’t hear any complaints;)The goat cheese really isn’t overpowering;it’s tangy creaminess is what harmonizes the sweet and savory flavors I just wish I could eat these more often !, Another great Saveur recipe The already sweet dates caramelize in the oven, inbued with the smoky goodness of the bacon then you bite into it-it’s soft, and gooey, giving way to a even gooier , creamy center and then you get a surprising little crunch from the salty almond MMMMM These went over well at my B-day even among those that claimed to dislike goat cheese (suggestions were made about subbing cream cheese, but I didn’t hear any complaints;)The goat cheese really isn’t overpowering;it’s tangy creaminess is what harmonizes the sweet and savory flavors I just wish I could eat these more often !
