2 teaspoons chopped fresh or 1/2 t. dried rubbed sage

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Stir in bean liquid mixture. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes,

stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Spread half of bean mixture in an 11

cheese. Spread artichoke mixture over goat cheese; top with remaining bean

mixture and remaining goat cheese. Combine the breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon

oil; sprinkle over goat cheese. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes or until lightly

browned. Yield: 6 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)
