Sweet n' Salty Goat Cheese Spread

Last night I hosted a "ladies wine night" for some of the girls in our neighborhood. For menu inspiration, I dug through my recipe pile in search of the easiest appetizer that I could find. Entertaining on a weeknight can be difficult, unless you have a few shortcuts.  A couple prepared "go to" items at the grocery store and "no cook" recipes like this one from Southern Living Magazine can make it much more manageable.  This is truly the easiest appetizer that I have ever made and it totally delivers in flavor!  I am on the hunt for more of these easy recipes, so stay tuned...we will all be hosting weeknight parties in no time!
