There are some ingredients when placed together in a dish, just work. One pairing is chevre (goats cheese) and fresh, seasonal tomatoes. Add into the mix fresh herbs, and you have cracked it for flavor and a perfect, simple and easy to make dish epitomizing the french way of cooking. This goats cheese and tomato tart unequivocally proves the point. This classic cheese and tomato tart is a beautiful appetizer, and it also works like a dream as a light lunch, even a supper dish if you add a green salad and a glass of good french wine. Make individual tarts or bake as one large tart and slice afterward which makes it perfect for a party, picnic, or in slices for a lunch box too. The delicious tart is made with fresh, garden tomatoes, on top of a thin layer of dijon mustard, and fresh herbs which you can adjust to suit your taste. Be careful of not overusing the stronger-flavored herbs like thyme, rosemary, and sage; basil is one of the best to use and one you can never have enough.
