This easy spread, created by event planner and caterer Lisa Rochon, won an honorable mention at Peachtree Road Farmers Market’s 2010 “Market Mash-Up” vendor recipe contest. Her mash-up involved using goat cheese, garlic, herbs, kale and radishes from different farmers at the market. The recipe works as a dip, a simple appetizer or first course served with sliced bread or as the base for a fabulous sandwich.

Preparation:
In a large mixing bowl, combine goat cheese, garlic, mayonnaise, mustard, parsley, chives and celery salt. Mix until well combined. Add kale and stir until all leaves are well-coated. Stir in radishes. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 days.
