Recipe Details
Artichokes and olives are staples of the Mediterranean diet, making Nuovo’s Artichoke and Olive Pesto a staple in every well-stocked pantry. Try this simple spread/dip with soft goat cheese and use it with Belgian endive leaves for a perfect finger food appetizer, or simple spread it on grilled bread, focaccia, or pizza. It’s also great as a dip for crudité vegetables.
Ingredients
- 7 oz Container Nuovo Artichoke and Olive Pesto
- 8 oz Log goat cheese
- 4 heads Belgian endive
Directions
- Place goat cheese in a mixing bowl. Break it up with a fork. Add pesto, one tablespoon at a time, and mix gently until incorporated. Keep adding up to 4 tablespoons of pesto, reserving the rest for future use.
- Rinse and pat the Belgian endive heads dry. Discard the first round of outer leaves and cut off one inch of the base to free the rest.
- Spoon about one Tbsp of the pesto/cheese mix on the bottom half of each leaf and arrange the stuffed leaves attractively on a serving platter.
