is our recipe)

Cut the goat cheese log into 4 equal rounds and place in
the center of a small oven-proof plate or dish. Spoon the marinara
around the goat cheese. Sprinkle the pignoli evenly over the
goat cheese and sauce. Bake in a 350° oven for only about 15
minutes or until the goat cheese softens slightly and the marinara
is heated through. Remove and top lightly with torn fresh basil.
Make the bruschetta by slicing the baguette on the diagonal
into 1/2 inch slices. Broil on one side only until just toasted.
Remove and rub the toasted side with fresh garlic. Serve by
spooning the warmed goat cheese and sauce onto the bruschetta
slices.
