GOAT CHEESE, TOMATO AND SAUSAGE TART

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch spinach, washed
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ½ cup pitted kalamata olives
  • ¼ cup sundried tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed but still chilled
  • 3 ounces goat cheese
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • Handful cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 link sweet Italian sausage
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the spinach, garlic, olives and sundried tomatoes in a food processor. Process until finely chopped. With the processor running, drizzle in the olive oil. Scrape down the sides and process again for a few seconds until a pesto/paste forms. Set aside.
  • Lay the puff pastry sheet on the parchment paper lined baking sheet. Using a rolling pin, roll it out a few times to flatten and even it out.
  • Spread the pesto on the puff pastry covering the entire sheet except a 1 inch border around the sides.
  • Dot the goat cheese on top of the pesto.
  • Layer the tomato slices on top of the goat cheese in rows. Use the cherry tomatoes in between the larger slices.
  • Lastly, crumble the sausage on top of the tomatoes and season the whole thing with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for about 20-22 minutes until puffed and golden around the edges.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
