Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    In a bowl, crumble the chevre and set it aside. Rinse the basil leaves and pat them dry. If the pepitas are not roasted, you can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are fragrant.

  2. 2

    Mix the Salad

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled chevre, fresh basil leaves, and toasted pepitas.

  3. 3

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle this dressing over the cheese and basil mixture.

  4. 4

    Toss and Serve

    Gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients with the dressing. Serve immediately as an appetizer or side dish.
