{Make this}: Avocado Goat Cheese Spread.

This has been the summer of craving two things - goat cheese and avocado. I never really liked either before this summer and so opening the door to these two possibilities has meant I couldn't get enough. And yet somehow I had never tried them together until one fateful day I ate an amazing sandwich at Silly Goose in Nashville. This sandwich that changed my life and my palate? The Bird. It had chicken breast, sun-dried tomatoes, bacon, avocados, and goat cheese. And just like that, I realized the potential of goat cheese and avocado.

Last weekend Jake was watching football and I decided to make something to munch on. I didn't want to go to the store so I decided to use what we had. The result was this avocado goat cheese spread. It would make a great dish to bring to a party or could be put on sandwiches. Try it out!

You'll need:

1 avocado
1 small package fresh goat cheese (the little tube)
1 lime
pepper

You'll do:

1) Peel and chop your avocado into small chunks.

2) Tear the goat cheese into small pieces. Add the avocado and goat cheese together in a bowl and toss.

3) Squirt fresh lime juice of one lime into the mixture and add pepper (to taste). Mix this in.

I served with chips and pretzels - it was actually really good with the pretzels. I could also see it with pita chips, pita bread, baguette or french bread, or spread on a sandwich.

You should make this!
