A few weeks ago Tom and I were invited to an impromptu picnic dinner in Central Park. We both were racking our brains for ideas of something tasty to bring along when I remembered a killer taste combo we had this winter at Indie Food & Wine- goat cheese and honey. They serve a crostini topped with smeared goat cheese and honey. Of course on short notice nobody wants to make and transport crostini to a picnic so we set out to make a dip. I quickly found a base recipe I could screw around with to make a relatively healthy fruit/pita chip/veggie dip.
Honey Balsamic Goat Cheese Dip
1 cup goat cheese
1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
3 tbs honey
2 tbs balsamic vinegar
Crumble goat cheese into the bowl of a food processor. Add yogurt, honey, and balsamic and pulse until smooth. Feel free to add a teaspoon or two of milk if you want it to be a different consistency.
We served ours with apple slices and crusty bread! Enjoy!
