Roasted beets with warm goat cheese

I had some roasted beets in the refrigerator that I picked up at the farmers market over the weekend and wanted to do something easy but delicious with them.

Beets and goat cheese go great together, and these little patties are one of our favorites.

To finish the dish I drizzled with EVOO some coarse sea salt and pepper and Balsamic.

Warm Goat Cheese

about 1 -2 TBS goat cheese per serving

bread crumbs (I used a mixture of regular and Panko) mixed with some Italian herbs and salt and pepper

oil

Form small balls with the goat cheese.

Toss in the bread crumbs to coat.

Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan over medium high heat.

Add the balls and flatten to form patties.

Cook about 5 minutes on a side until golden on the outside and soft on the inside.
