Summer calls for delicious, easy, quick and refreshing snacks. And as you might know I love combining fruits and cheese since it makes such a wonderful combination. I guess watermelon usually is paired with feta cheese… but it’s great to pair with other flavorful cheese as well! Like here, paired with a a creamy and tasty goat cheese cream. The goat cheese cream is made with goat cheese and greek yogurt (you can also use Creme fraiche), which makes the goat cheese cream just perfectly strong in taste with a wonderful creamy texture from the yogurt which also adds a fresh taste to the cream. I topped my watermelon and goat cheese bites with fresh basil, roughly chopped pistachio nuts and thick balsamic vinegar to add some additional textures and tastes. These watermelon bites are easy and quick to make but also so refreshing and delicious. Serve them as fingerfood, appetizers or just when you want an easy and refreshing snack. They are both vegetarian, gluten, grain free and low carb.
A few tips:
- Try to find a sweet and perfectly ripe watermelon. Try to avoid the dry and mealy once.
- The ratio of goat cheese/yogurt can be adapted according to how strong cheese taste you prefer and how creamy you like your cream. Start by adding a little bit of yogurt/Creme fraiche and add more as needed.
- The goat cheese cream can be prepared in advance. The rest should be done just before serving.
- You can also make these watermelon bites using feta cheese if you prefer it.
- Try to cut equally sized watermelon bites.
- I prefer using a cold watermelon straight out of the fridge to make it really refreshing.
