Whipped Chevre (Goat Cheese) with Fruit

Chevre becomes rich and creamy after being whipped, but if you aren’t sure about Chevre, substitute Feta Cheese. Do trust that the onions make a difference in this dish (after marinating) and pair perfectly with the fruit and cheese. Low Carb except for the fruit; as a side dish it will easily serve 4. Total CHO will depend on serving size.
