Goat Cheese & Chive Dip

Written by Published on Updated on June 2, 2019 in Appetizers, Mediterranean cuisine

Hey there!!  The beginning of a new week and unfortunately my mom is leaving tomorrow.(What can you do that’s life)  So, yesterday we met up with my brother for lunch and had a lovely day, chatting, eating and it was just a fun day being outside.  It was late afternoon when we finally decided it was time to head on back home.    We waited for the tram, (yep we don’t take cars into the city center, parking is just wayyy to expensive here), we were discussing what we wanted to do during the evening. A few ideas came up but since we were both a bit tired from a long day, we thought staying in would be a the smartest option, and have a movie night.  

On our way back I stopped off at the supermarket and picked up a bag of Corn Chips to go along with the dip I was going to prepare.   I am not a huge fan of Goat Cheese but believe me this dip will definitely change your mind.  If you are like me and don’t care for Goat’s cheese and you would like to try out this recipe do what I did, and that was I added some cream cheese into it so that the taste is not as sharp, and it truly turned even better than I expected.. 🙂  

Have a great week!!!

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie

    My son use to be allergic to cow's milk so we developed a love for goat cheese since then... this will be a hit here!
