Ingredients

Scale

1 – 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped fine
1 8-oz. package of goat cheese
About 3 tablespoons of fresh basil leaves and/or flowers, chopped fine (I used a mix of green and purple leaves)
A few other fresh herbs: rosemary, thyme, oregano

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, goat cheese, and fresh herbs until well mixed. (If the goat cheese is giving you any trouble, try microwaving it for about 30 seconds to soften it up a bit.) Put the spread in a covered container and refrigerate until serving time. This schmear is best if made an hour or more before serving so the flavors have to time to permeate through the goat cheese. Serve with crackers or crudites.
