Health and fertility benefits of Cranberry-Goat Cheese Canapés

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.

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh jalapeño pepper
3/4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Canapé Toast Squares
1 (5.3-oz.) container spreadable goat cheese
Garnish: roasted, salted, and shelled pepitas (pumpkin seeds)

Instructions

Stir together first 5 ingredients in a medium bowl. Let stand 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Spread each toast square with cheese, and top with a small spoonful of cranberry mixture.
