If you would have asked a few years ago if I would be eating goat cheese I would say you were crazy! But over the last few years I have really opened myself up to trying new things. One of my good friends introduced me to goat cheese and I’m so glad she did.
This grilled asparagus and mushroom salad with goat cheese recipe is light, but full of flavor – and what we all love to hear… it’s easy! This pairs great with some grilled chicken or fish and is a sure crowd pleaser.
