Recipe Description

I make this dish often when we have guests over for a casual meal. It is so easy to put together and always gets rave reviews. It can be made in one large dish for a party, or created in individual baking dishes so each person gets their own.

Preparation Instructions

Heat the tomato sauce in a saucepan. Keep warm.

Slice the bread into 1/2 inch slices and place on a baking sheet. Place under the broiler and brown each side of the bread slices (crostini). Place a garlic clove on a fork and rub vigorously on one side of each of the crostini. Brush each crostini lightly with olive oil.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place each of the goat cheese logs into their own oven safe small baking dish and then pour the hot tomato sauce over the top until it almost (but not quite) covers the cheese. Bake for about 20 minutes or until bubbly and hot. Place each dish on a larger plate and surround it with the crostini. Serve hot.

Ingredients

2 packages Goat Cheese (4 Ounces Each)
4 cups Homemade Tomato Sauce
1 whole Crusty Baguette Loaf Of Bread
5 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 whole Cloves Garlic, Peeled

I started making this after having it as an appetizer while out at a little Italian ristorante. Delicious and guests always seem to think it takes so much more work than it does, so a great crowd pleaser!

Do you have a recipe for the tomato sauce?

I can’t wait to make this!! I had a dish very similar to this at Cafe Ba Ba Ree Ba (a tapas restaurant) in Chicago years ago. It was amazing. This sounds exactly like it. I guess I’ll be stopping at the store tonight.

I had this at a tapas restaurant a while back and thought it was the best thing EVER.

I made this for a few friends one night and it was gobbled right up! SO GOOD!
