mango with goat cheese and basil

OK, so this is not from vegetarian times. I just made this up. I don't even know if this is a socially acceptable flavor pairing. All I know is, I just woke up from a loooong nap and went straight to the fridge and started grabbing things I wanted, and ended up with this. The cheese is from the Hollywood Farmer's Market in Portland, and the mangoes are the smaller yellow variety from New Seasons. The goat cheese is so mild, so it doesn't have that 'smells like a goat' kind of a smell. It's just a tiny bit pungent, but so much more creamy than the more mass-marketed brands. Which all adds up to the best after-nap snack you can imagine.
1 oz goat cheese + 3 oz mango = 3 points.
