Directions
Goat Cheese Torta, This makes a pretty presentation and can be made 5-days in advance and refrigerated or it can be frozen up to 2-months Found this recipe on What’s Cooking America? The ingredient amounts listed below are for a half recipe Prep time is refrigeration time , Very nice Liked the goat cheese added 3 Things used a herb cream cheese vs adding dried oregano to the cheese, and didn’t add any garlic, but did add the pepper I made my own pesto (store bought is fine, I just had plenty of herbs so I wanted to use them, so I had extra garlic in mine which is why I didn’t add garlic to the cheese mix) And, I love pine nuts and didn’t put any in my pesto so I had some on had and decided to use it I rough chopped, very rough chopped and toasted until golden brown and actually put a small layer of nuts in between the pesto and sundried layer Then I garnished as well Fresh parsley sprig was my garnish None left, so, good The goat cheese was a nice addition used a loaf pan Draining the pesto a bit and the tomatoes is key to get a pretty layered effect It comes out perfect! I served as suggested, baguettes or crackers, used both and bread sticks too The kids love the small bread sticks Just pretty!, This was fantastic! I loved that it could be made ahead of time and the bonus was that it was easy!! I added one more clove of garlic and used toasted pine nuts as French Tart suggested I had some for breakfast and I’m eating more now! Thanks, I will make this over and over!
