If you like goat cheese (I love it!) this is super simple:

spray a baking dish with cooking spray
crumble a large log of goat cheese all over the bottom (the pre-crumbled is drier and doesn't work as well)
cover with a partial jar of your fave marinara sauce
bake at 400 until bubbly
serve with toasted baguette slices or crackers

This gets inhaled at my house!

CA Girl - They do look like the ones that sailorgirl posted. Although, hers look homemade and not store bought. I usually find them in the deli area at Krogers or Wal-Mart, in packages of 3.

Once fixed up, they are a big hit and are so nice and light. And pretty! :)

Goat cheese torte:

I make this at Christmas time and it is always a hit. I freeze the leftovers, if any, and serve them later over hot pasta.

1 pound goat cheese, softened
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
8 ounces jarred basil pesto
1/2 cup slivered almonds, lightly toasted
4 ounces jarred sun-dried tomato pesto
basil sprig

Spray a 6-8 inch springform pan (Target) with Pam. Cream goat cheese and butter with mixer until smooth. Layer 1/3 of goat cheese mix, half the basil pesto, half the almonds, and tomato pesto in pan. Repeat one more layer. Top with remaining goat cheese mix.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate over-night. Remove pan sides and place torte on a plate. Let stand 1 hour before serving with crackers. Garnish with a basil sprig. Serves 20.

It's pretty and festive!

Canned water chestnuts, drained and marinated briefly in a brine (whatever you want in the brine - try worcestershire, brown sugar, and water).

Cut a pkg of bacon into 1/3rds. Wrap bacon slice around the water chestnut & secure with a sharp toothpick. Broil a few minutes until the bacon is cooked.

Yummo.
