Mini Roast Beef, Goat Cheese, and Radish Sandwiches
I made these little sandwiches for a party we had at our house a while ago. They were a HUGE hit and would be perfect for the Superbowl in a couple weeks. You could really use whatever sandwich combinations you enjoy in some little puff pastry buns.
Making the little puff pastry buns took a bit of time just because after they cooled, they all had to be cut in half. I made the puff pastry buns one day and assembled the sandwiches the next day.
Hubby requested roast beef and I decided to pair it with some creamy herbed goat cheese and a thin slice of radish to give it some bite and crunch. The combination was pretty awesome and I can’t wait to make these again!
One Year Ago: Oatmeal Chocolate Cinnamon Cookies
Mini Roast Beef, Goat Cheese, and Radish Sandwiches
Ingredients:
2 8-ounce sheets of frozen puff pastry (thawed)
2 Tbsp sesame seeds
4 oz herbed goat cheese, at room temp
10-12 ounces thinly sliced roast beef
10 radishes, thinly sliced
Directions:
Heat oven to 375.
Using a 2-inch round cookie cutter, cut circles from puff pastry and place on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake until golden brown, about 18 minutes.
Allow puff pastry to cool and then split each puff. Spread some goat cheese on the bottom of each puff. Add a slice of radish and top with a piece of roast beef. Replace top of puff and use a toothpick or other skewer to hold sandwich together (optional).

I’m with you–every ingredient in this salad is a winner on it’s own. Together? Forgetaboutit! The colors are beautiful and I can imagine how great it tastes with the balance of bitter, sweet, and tart.
Love the new layout, also. Way to go!
Yum! I am also addicted to kale since doing a CSA here in Boston 🙂
It’s so funny, because as I was scrolling through Tastespotting tonight and saw this post, I had to click because it looked so familiar to my winter couscous bowl… and then, I couldn’t believe it when I saw my blog credited at the bottom! This is a first for me 🙂 Thanks so much for the credit!
So you’ve recently moved back to Cincinnati? Which part? My family and I live in Anderson Township.

Thanks so much for the recipe!!
We work in West Chester and are living in Oakley right now. Trying to find a house at some point…
I think this sounds amazing, Jen! And I love how colorful it is. I am always looking for new winter salads that are colorful, flavorful, and interesting.

This is definitely colorful, flavorful, and interesting. I have seriously been OBSESSED with pomegranates this winter, and this salad totally feeds into that obsession.
I’m on a major quinoa AND kale kick so this salad is right up my alley. So colorful and pretty, too!

Pretty food is definitely always tastier than ugly food 🙂
looks a lot like the one i posted last week 🙂 obviously, i’m all over it!!

Very similar indeed!
This is perfect for that kale and pomegranate I have in the fridge! I’m always excited to find new things to put together ahead of time for lunches and dinners, thanks! Hope you are settling in nicely 🙂

I couldn’t agree more. Making food ahead of time saves the day during the week! I can’t imagine not eating leftovers… Things are going pretty well for us in Ohio so far. Hope things are going well for you and your little bundle on the way!
Sounds great to me! I love the ingredients. And the colors 🙂
This sounds right up my alley! YUM!!
I was thinking about an easy and colorful, flavorful, and power-packed healthy side dish to bring for a potluck lunch after a trail work party this coming weekend. I had these amazing cute pumpkins to harvest from my garden and love both kale and quinoa. I thought to myself, mmmm, what if I made some kind of pumpkin kale quinoa and goat cheese salad to share? One quick internet search and I came across this gem! I modified and concocted a tad, which is normal for me. Thanks so much for the recipe and ingredient confirmations! The honey, olive oil, and smokey / spicy combo was the secret ingredient for me! Happy fooding!

Glad you enjoyed it! I am always tweaking recipes to make them fit what I have on hand and what we like too.
