Note: Banon or Montrachet goat cheese would be an excellent choice for this recipe. If preferred, low-fat or fat-free cream cheese can be substituted for the goat cheese.

INGREDIENTS

- 4 ounces mild goat cheese
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped mint leaves
- 1 cup fresh, or frozen, thawed blueberries, divided
- 4 pieces luncheon-size lavosh (5-inch)

DIRECTIONS

Mix cheese and mint in small bowl until smooth; refrigerate
3 to 4 hours for flavors to blend. Shape cheese into
flattened round on small, oven-proof serving plate.

Bake cheese at 350 degrees F. until warm
and slightly softened, 5 to 10 minutes.

Process 1/2 cup blueberries in food processor or blender
until smooth. Spoon puree around cheese; sprinkle remaining
1/2 cup blueberries over and around cheese. Serve with lavosh.
