Garlic Goat Cheese and Herb Crostini

Ingredients

1 baguette cut in one half inch slices
One half cup crumbled goat cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 shallots, minced
One half cup extra-virgin olive oil
One half cup assorted fresh herbs finely chopped (rosemary, parsley, cilantro, dill and thyme are some that work well. You may choose others and adjust the taste to your liking).

Directions

Place baguette slices on ungreased baking dish and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Meanwhile, place remaining ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Remove baguette slices from the oven and spread mixture on each slice. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 - 15 minutes at 350 degrees.

The Skinny: Goat cheese is lower in fat than most other cheeses and you are also using olive oil which is supposed to be good for you.
