Snack, starter, small plate, hors d'oeuvre, nibble, tapas...whatever you want to call it, here's a small bite I made a while back from the pages of BBC Good Food -- goat cheese stuffed roasted peppers with honey and walnuts.Pretty dang simple if you buy already roasted peppers in a jar, but, of course, roast away if you must. Don't even think about trying this without the honey. The honey really was my favorite element, and, without the sweetness of the honey, a cracker or piece of bread topped with roasted pepper and cheese just isn't as satisfying.
