Health and fertility benefits of Pistachio Goat Cheese Ball

Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries.

Ingredients

1 head Garlic
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
10 ounces, weight Goat Cheese, Chevre, Softened
4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
1/3 cup Dried Cranberries, Chopped
2/3 cups Pistachios, Chopped Or Ground
Crackers, For Serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Slice the top off of the garlic bulb to reveal the cloves, and drizzle olive oil over top. Wrap the bulb in foil and roast it for 45 –60 minutes, until cloves are golden and caramelized. Let cool until you can comfortably touch it. Once cool, squeeze the cloves out. Mash well with a fork.
In a bowl, stir and mash together goat cheese, cream cheese, salt, pepper, roasted garlic and dried cranberries. Make sure the garlic is evenly distributed! Use your hands to roll the cheese into a ball. Roll the ball in the pistachios and cover the outside completely.
Serve with crackers and chips!
