Why I love this recipe:

  • Unique – I’m obsessed with the flavor combinations at play in this goat cheese dip, and the blend of fresh herbs. It’s not your average dip, and sure to impress!
  • Quick – Made in 15 minutes or less, and you can make it a few days in advance. Doesn’t get easier than that.
  • Delicious – Serve it with your favorite crackers, artisan bread or homemade pita bread. One bite and you’ll be hooked.
