Three Layer Spread | Aperitiv Tricolor


Ingredients:
 - One cup goat cheese
 - 3-4 tablespoons of dried cranberries
 - 3-4 tablespoons of pistachio pieces
 - Half a cup of sun dried tomatoes
 - A quarter of a cup of pesto
 - Crackers

Preparation:
 - Mix the goat cheese with the dried cranberries and the pistachio pieces.
 - Add a thin sheet of plastic foil over a small round bowl.  This will help flip the spread over more easily.
 - Place the pesto on the bottom of the bowl (over the plastic foil).  This will be the top layer of the spread.
 - Add the sun dried tomatoes on top.  This is the second layer.
 - Roll the goat cheese mixture into a cylinder shape, and place it over the sun dried tomatoes.  Press the cheese mixture gently for a uniform spread.  Make sure the tomatoes are thoroughly covered by the cheese.
 - Place the bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes.  This will help flip the spread over more easily.

Presentation:
 - Remove the bowl from the freezer, and flip the spread over in a clean plate.  Gently remove the plastic foil.  Remove any stubborn pieces that stuck to the plastic foil, and carefully place them back on top of the three layer spread.
 - Let the recipe reach room temperature again (about 20 minutes).
 - Serve with crackers.
