Mediterranean Almond & Herb Crunch Salad

Impress your guests with this fun, flavorful, and texturally-pleasing Mediterranean Almond &Herb Crunch Salad. We coated soft goat cheese in a chopped Matiz Marcona Almond mixture, nicely seasoned with fresh herbs, citrus, and garlic. To highlight the salty Spanish almonds and herbaceous goat cheese, we paired this salad with sweet-tart grapes, rich olive oil, and earthy balsamic vinegar.
