4.5 stars (out of 5 - great pasta sauce! And easy too!)
I had forgotten about goat cheese pasta sauce until today, so I thought I would try it again. I think it was LX who originally made it for me, but I can't quite remember. I decided to spice up the recipe this time by adding some of my own ingredients. We will see how it goes..!
Ingredients (for 2 people):
Tomato pasta sauce (about 1.5 cups)
Goat cheese (1 pack soft goat cheese.. I used peppercorn)
Fresh spinach
1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped pecans (or any nut)
Sliced kalamata olives (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil
Pasta of your choice
1. I started this recipe when the pasta had 10 minutes left to cook. First I heated the frying pan with some olive oil, and threw in the pecans, attempting to brown them. I ended up "blackening" quite a few of them! Oops. But I just threw out the burnt bits and went on...

2. I then added the goat cheese, and melted it slightly.
3. I poured in about 1.5 cups of tomato sauce and mixed everything. I basically wanted it to be creamy, but not over-powering.
4. After this was all mixed up, I added the spinach and waited for it to cook.
5. Once cooked, I served over a bed of fettuccine, with some garlic bread.
It turned out delicious! I was very happy with it :)
