    Served this for guests recently and everyone said they ate like they were at a fine-dining restaurant. This was simple and delicious... the dressing is easily made in advance and kept in the fridge to help with prep. Give everyone a knife and fork with this one :) Looks pretty on the plate too.

    Made this for company the other night and everyone loved it. I'd definitely make it again. Be sure to take the goat cheese out of the fridge well in advance so it's the right temp/consistency when you go to blend the dressing.
