Do you like bread? Oh how I love bread. I don’t eat a ton of it, but when I do, I enjoy every last bite. Bread with butter? Bread with olive oil and parm? Bread with goat cheese, sun dried tomatoes, balsamic glaze, and basil? HECK YES.

This recipe for Goat Cheese and Sun Dried Tomato Crostini might be the easiest recipe I have on the blog, but one of my favorites. You know I love goat cheese and you know I love sun dried tomatoes, hence this salad recipe and this pasta recipe. I don’t think I have to mention this, but balsamic glaze might be the best thing ever. I could go on and on about each ingredient, I heart them all, but the true beauty of them? They go SO WELL together. The flavors were meant to be. Kind of like me and ice cream.

    • It’s SO good! You can purchase balsamic glaze at your grocery store where they sell balsamic vinegar or you could make it yourself by pouring 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar into a sauce pan and simmering it over medium-low heat until nice and thickened – just watch it carefully so it doesn’t burn!

    • Hi Nadia – it all depends on how much you want to make. For these types of recipes, eye balling is the best way to go – there really isn’t a need to measure. It also depends on your taste preference – I love a ton of goat cheese while other may want just a light slather. Hope this helps!
