EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Be sure to store goat cheese in the refrigerator, tightly wrapped in plastic and away from eggs, butter and other foods that might easily pick up flavors.

Look for cooking parchment paper with the other paper products at the supermarket. It's great for making cookies and other items—clean up is extra easy!

Great taste! I substituted the pastry for crackers, topped the cheese with Costco sliced/oven roasted turkey breast, and baked for 15 minutes on 350. The turkey should start to get brown around the edges around the 15 min mark. Topped with roasted peppers mixture. I didn't like all the oregano, so I scraped most of it off, but did add the balsamic vinegar as one of the members suggested. Quick and easy to make.
