I have made my feta spread for many of my friends and family and it is a big hit. I have made the same thing with goat cheese instead of feta and it is just as delicious. But lately I've taken to making something similar but with tomato sauce instead of the diced tomatoes and veggies I normally put on top of the cheese. It's absolutely delicious and I wanted to share.
This recipe is so simple it's barely a recipe. You simply lightly season some tomato sauce. I like to use just a little bit of basil, garlic, salt, and pepper. For a kick you can add some red pepper flakes if you like. Then in a small pan -- a cake pan works great -- place slices or big dollops of goat cheese around the pan, with space in between them. Pour the tomato sauce into the pan - not on top of the goat cheese, but in between - so that it comes up about halfway up the goat cheese slices. That's it. Then you just bake it in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes.
In the meantime you can toast some sliced french or sourdough bread. When the cheese is warm, just scoop some up and spread it on bread, crackers, whatever you like. It's very simple but very, very yummy. Give it a try and tell me what you think!
Happy eating!
