Cheese and honey is Europe’s sweetest simplicity at its finest.  Try Catalonia’s version with a mild fresh goat cheese.  Goat Cheese with Honey, Blackberries and Walnuts is the light delight that ends a meal.  The creaminess of goat cheese coupled with smooth honey along with a burst of blackberries and a crunch of walnuts is a delectable combination on one plate.  Goat Cheese with Honey, Blackberries and Walnuts can be prepared in minutes and its sweetness can be savored in multiple bites.

Notes.  If sage honey is not available, try another artisanal honey such as lavender, eucaplytus or wildflower.  And to accommodate those with nut allergies, skip the walnuts.  The creamy goat cheese and burst of blackberries are still a great combination.
