While summer may be winding down, this Balsamic Strawberry and Goat Cheese Crostini recipe brings those summer flavors to the table anytime. I love fun little recipes that are easy to put together and this one fits that bill for sure!
I made our Balsamic Strawberry and Goat Cheese Crostinis using Montchevre Goat Cheese, which is made with fresh, high quality goat’s milk collected from local, independent family farms.

You can find Montchevre goat cheese in most grocery stores, but check the product locator to find out where and what products you can buy.
Montchevre is able to ensure their logs are rich and smooth because of their expertise in traditional French cheese-making.
