STUFFED ENDIVE WITH HERBED GOAT CHEESE
These bite-sized vegetable appetizers are big on flavor and absolutely gorgeous on a tabletop. As a vessel for the creamy herbed goat cheese, Belgian endive lettuce has a crisp texture and a sweet flavor with slightly bitter undertones. Topped with this herby goat cheese mixture, the lettuce becomes a delicious delicacy. The goat cheese stuffing, made from a creamy combination of crumbled goat cheese, softened cream cheese, lemon zest, chives, parsley, and tarragon, is full of sophisticated flavor. Not a fan of tarragon? You can sub in whichever herbs you like, or even add a little bit of spice for a deeply Southern twist. When choosing a goat cheese, opt for a local brand of full-fat cheese-with goat cheese, it is easy to taste the quality of the brand. No matter which cheese you choose, when combined with these flavorful herbs, the stuffing will certainly be a hit. This holiday appetizer is simple, attractive, and delicious-perfect for a last minute addition to your table. If desired, include red Belgian endive leaves along with the green, to make this "wreath" look more Christmassy.
