Fire-Roasted Tomato Goat Cheese Tartlets

I highly recommend this tart for those who want to impress their friends and family with a simple yet tasty appetizer. 

For this recipe you will need:

  • 1 large log of goat cheese (8 oz)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 Tbsp. Victoria Taylor’s Fire-Roasted Tomatoes
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 30 prebaked phyllo or puff pastry shells

Preheat oven to 400°.

Take the goat cheese log out of the refrigerator to soften a little. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and the softened goat cheese and mix thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Mix the tomatoes with the cheese and egg mixture.

I decided to split the goat cheese mixture and make half of this recipe using Mediterranean seasoning and the other half with the Fire Roasted Tomatoes.

Other blends that have been used in this recipe are Tuscan, Ginger Citrus and Smoky Paprika Chipotle.

Fill each pastry shell with a heaping teaspoon of cheese filling.

Place on a baking sheet and bake until puffed and golden on top, about 15 minutes.

They will stay puffed while warm, but taste just as good once they have cooled and deflated.

Best,

Goat Cheese Buttons

This is a quick and easy appetizer that can be made multiple ways. 

For this recipe you will need:

Remove goat cheese from package and slice in to ½ inch buttons.

 Roll each button in the 7 Seed Crust or Fire Roasted Tomatoes coating thoroughly.

Sprinkle finishing sea salt such as Anglesey over the buttons and drizzle honey over the cheese.

Serve goat cheese buttons with crackers.

Best,
