Well, goat cheese has been in my menu rotation for a couple of months now so I thought I’d make a jazzed up dip out of it! I’m also really into olives and sun-dried tomatoes so I decided to put them together to make a quick appetizer with tons of flavor! And bonus – keto-friendly!
I love a good dip! Who doesn’t? Load up all that goodness on a cracker, vegetables or bread and you’re good to go!
