Game Day Appetizer Recipe: Goat Cheese Log

Many of my recipes tend to revolve around cheese, because I’m literally obsessed with it.  Recently, I have attended a couple get togethers where goat cheese logs were served as appetizers and I fell in love with them!  I found that you can buy them pre-made with different toppings or you can make your own.  Today’s game day recipe feature will highlight a store-bought version and a homemade version….and I still can’t decide which I like better!

For a store bought version, one that I highly recommend is from Trader Joe’s.  The one I recently bought was a cranberry goat cheese log (pictured below), but I have also tried their blueberry and vanilla goat cheese log which was also delicious.

Then for my own personal version, I bought a plain goat cheese log as well as purchased one of Trader Joe’s Preserves.  You can choose any type of preserves to do this with.  I picked the Fresh Northwest Blackberry Preserves.  All you do is place your plain goat cheese log onto a plate and then spread the preserves on top of the log.

Serve with your favorite crackers and glass of wine.  These go great on Game Day (and in front of a cozy fire!!)
