Grilled Veggies & Herb Whipped Goat Cheese

This has been my entertaining go-to as of late: a heaping piled of grilled veggies served with herb whipped goat cheese, which happens to be so tasty that I would eat ANYTHING it was spread upon .  This is so easy to throw together, leaving plenty of time for chatting with guests, and is always a hit!  We usually grill some chicken to go with it and serve alongside a giant summer salad.  It’s delicious and satisfying, un-fussy but still worthy of guests.  I’m a fan and hope you will be too!  xx- Sarah  PS if you are lucky enough to have leftovers, chop them up and combine them with reamaining herb whipped goat cheese for a beautiful summer salad (see mine here)!
