Servings: 12 servings
Calories: 115kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup crushed Cheetos
- 2 TBSP fresh rosemary finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp or more salt
- 1 large log Goat Cheese or 2 small logs
- 1 French baguette
- 2 TBSP olive oil for brushing on baguette slices
Instructions
- Add 1 cup Cheetos to a food processor.
- Pulse until finely ground
- Add chopped rosemary, salt and pepper.
- Mix until well combined.
- Roll goat cheese log in Cheeto mixture until fully covered.
- I like a lot of Cheetos dust so I placed a bed on the plate and then set the crusted goat cheese log on top.
- Serve with oven-toasted crostini
To make crostini:
- Slice baguttte and lay out on a sheet pan.
- Drizzle or brush with olive oil.
- Bake at 325 for about 12 minutes watching to make sure they turn golden brown and do not burn.
Notes
*The nutrition information is off since the software didn't have Cheetos as an option. I substituted the info with "corn chips". I'm guessing if you are making a recipe with Cheetos as an ingredient, you aren't super worried about the calories. No shade. I love junk food.
