This incredibly easy snack is a favorite of Runner’s World contributing pastry chef Gesine Bullock-Prado. The sweet-crisp apple provides the perfect counterpoint to the tart, creamy goat cheese. Compared to some cheeses made from cow’s milk, such as Cheddar, fresh goat cheese is actually a lower-fat choice. If you have the time, let the cheese sit at room temperature for an hour before you eat it. Doing so brings out the full flavor.
