Garlic Herb Cheese Log

I made this twice over the holidays for parties I was hosting & it was a huge hit each time. I used fresh herbs & the lemon zest is a must, it brightens the flavor and made it so incredibly delicious. The second time I made it I added half a block of cream cheese (4 oz), for no other reason than to make it bigger since more guests and the goat cheese still shined thru. I will definitely make this a keeper recipe, I think it would be lovely in spring or summer maybe swapping the pecans for toasted pine nuts or walnuts. Thank you!

10 Minute prep creamy, savory Garlic Herb Goat Cheese Log is the EASIEST yet most impressive appetizer you will ever make! It can be made in advance so it’s the perfect appetizer for all your special occasions and parties!
