Roasted Blackberry & Rosemary Goat Cheese

 

Today’s Sunday Funday is Blackberries and I decided to try something a little different and make my own flavored goat cheese.

This is fantastic in so many ways! It has the sharpness of the goat cheese, paired with a little sweetness from the roasted berries and then the earthiness from the rosemary - so good!

This goat cheese is perfect on crackers or part of a charcuterie board.  It’s also great on a roasted beet salad or a hearty lettuce salad - the possibilities are endless!
