Ingredients

• 2 - ounces of garlic herb goat cheese (1 package sliced in half length-wise)
• 2 - tablespoons of capers (or more to your taste)
• 1 1/2 cups of grape tomatoes, cut in half
• olive oil
• 5-6 basil leaves
• sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions

• Slice the grape tomatoes in half and add them to a shallow baking dish. Drizzle about tablespoon of olive oil over them along with the capers, a pinch of sea salt and a few turns of fresh cracked black pepper. Bake at 400 degrees 15-20 minutes or until the tomatoes have started to soften and juice. Remove the baking dish from the oven and nestle the goat cheese to the center of the dish with the tomato-caper mixture surrounding it. Bake 5-7 minutes, then switch to broil for a couple of minutes until the top just begins to brown. Thinly slice the basil (chiffonade) and sprinkle it over the top. Serve with sliced, toasted baguette or your favorite crackers.
