I am always running out of the house in a hurry on weekday mornings, usually grabbing a granola bar or banana because I ran out of time to make breakfast.  Anyone else?  Well, I found 5 quick (10 minutes or less) recipes for those very days.

Herbed Goat Cheese & Radish Tartines

4 slices gluten-free bread, toasted

1 raw garlic clove

3-ounces goat cheese, room temperature

4 sprigs flat-leaf parsley, de-stemmed & minced

4-5 radishes, sliced thin (use mandolin or paring knife)*

When your bread is toasted & still warm, rub raw garlic clove evenly over each slice. Set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, stir together goat cheese, lemon zest and fresh herbs until evenly combined. Spread herbed goat cheese evenly across each toast. Layer with sliced radish and top with microgreens. Season with flaky sea salt and freshly cracked pepper. Serve immediately.
