I’m super psyched to be here today with this delicious peach and goat cheese panini and a giveaway. The tangy creaminess of the fresh goat cheese pairs perfectly with the sweet juiciness of the ripe peaches to make one awesome vegetarian panini that’s ready in 15 minutes!!

Peach and Goat Cheese PaniniI used to be the biggest goat cheese lover in my family. That was the case until my 4-year-old daughter Penny discovered it. Now I think she holds the title for sure. Penny even has a special expression she makes when thinking about goat cheese. Her eyes roll back into her head, and she gets a dazed smile. Really, she loves all cheeses (even bleu!) But of all the cheeses on the board she like goat cheese the best. She even loves soft-ripened aged goat cheeses! (I am a lucky Mommy to have such a good eater!)

Penny and I are so happy to have this Giveaway going on right now, because it is all about kids and goat cheese. Vermont Butter & Cheese Creamery and Zutano have teamed together for the occasion. Zutano makes kids clothes with super soft fabrics with lots of quirky fun prints. Zutano is actually Vermont based, so we have had a ton of it over the years. My oldest daughter even came home from the hospital in head to toe Zutano.

These two awesome companies have teamed up to bring bigger awareness that goat cheese is a healthy source of protein for children. And it is easy to digest for sensitive tummies. They are calling the promotion Kids and Kids. Cute right? So right here on Healthy Seasonal Recipes they are giving away a Vermont Butter and Cheese Creamery gift basket and a $75 Zutano gift card! You’d have to be crazy to not enter this one. Even if you don’t have children, these clothes make amazing gifts. And these cheeses are fabulous. Entry requirements are below the recipe. I used the fresh goat cheese in these panini with fresh sliced peaches. My favorite summer fruit. Don’t worry, if you don’t have a panini press, check out this post my sister wrote to find out about an alternative method.
