Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Medjool dates
- 4 tablespoons Low-fat goat cheese
- 12 pieces Roasted unsalted almonds
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional)
Instructions
Slice each Medjool date lengthwise along one side to create a pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through. Remove the pit from each date.
In a small bowl, mix the low-fat goat cheese with finely chopped fresh parsley for added flavor.
Using a small spoon or clean fingers, stuff each date with approximately one teaspoon of the goat cheese mixture. Fill the pocket fully, but avoid overstuffing.
Press one roasted unsalted almond gently into the center of the goat cheese filling in each date. Ensure the almond stays in place.
If desired, drizzle the stuffed dates lightly with honey for a touch of additional sweetness.
Arrange the stuffed dates on a serving platter and garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 24 hours until ready to serve.
