This is a perfect holiday appetizer to take to any gathering. I know the weeks from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day are filled with holiday parties from home to work. My husband had a holiday party at work so this fun little appetizer was one of the dishes I made for him to take to enjoy with his co-workers.
You simply gather the scallions, craisins (dried cranberries), toasted pecans and black pepper and roll the goat cheese right into it then serve it with your favorite crackers.
I hope you try this festive and easy Sweet and Savory Goat Cheese Log Appetizer this holiday season.
