Salad with Glazed Goat Cheese

A super combination that is not only healthy and delicious but also works in every season!

 

Ingredients (serves 4):

  • 1/2 lb seasonal salad greens
  • 1 baguette
  • 2 cups goat cheese in slices
  • 4 tbsp honey
  • 12 cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 4 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 8 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • A bit of thyme
  • A bit of rosemary

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Clean, thoroughly wash, and spin-dry the salad greens.
  2. Cut the baguette into 16 equally sized slices, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and drizzle with olive oil. Cut the goat cheese into 16 slices and distribute them on the baguette slices.
  3. Drizzle the honey over the goat cheese, then season with salt, pepper, and a bit of thyme and rosemary. Roast the baguette slices in the oven for about 5 minutes until the goat cheese is gratinated.
  4. Meanwhile, wash the cherry tomatoes, halve them, and remove the stems. Remove the pit and peel from the avocado and slice it.
  5. Make a vinaigrette from balsamic vinegar and olive oil, and season it with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme.
  6. Toss the salad greens with the vinaigrette and arrange on plates. Add the tomato halves and avocado slices. Place the gratinated goat cheese baguette slices on top and serve.
