→ Main Ingredients

01 - 6.5 oz soft cheese with herbs, such as Alouette or Boursin
02 - ½ cup tomatoes, chopped
03 - ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
04 - 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette glaze or reduction
05 - Pita chips, crackers, or thinly sliced baguette

# Instructions:

01 - Spread the soft cheese evenly over the center of a large plate or small platter, leaving about a ¼ inch around the edge empty and clean.
02 - Evenly sprinkle and spread the chopped tomatoes over the cheese, followed by the fresh basil.
03 - Using a back-and-forth motion, drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette glaze over the entire plate. Note that a small amount goes a long way.

# Notes:

01 - Balsamic glaze can often be found in grocery stores near the salad dressings or vinegars. Trader Joe's has a great option for this.
