A bite of aged goat cheese, then a fresh bite of tart-sweet greens punctuated with the crunch of fresh apple—this is a perfect marriage.
Shellagh Connelly, chef/owner of Mildred Pierce Cafe in St. Paul (and a woman who understands breakfast food down to her soul), created the dish for her breakfast menu. For me, my version illustrates an important point—cream cheese is one of the most underrated ingredients in the market.

For these fresh, light spring rolls, you simply soften thin, crisp rice paper rounds and roll them up with whatever you'd like (cooked meat and/or vegetables), or try the classic Vietnamese blend of lettuce, rice noodles, fresh herbs, shrimp and pork (bought already cooked at Asian markets). There's no frying and the rolls keep for hours under a dampened paper towel in the refrigerator. Serve them with the sweet-tart dipping sauce.

This requires the least work of all the cooked tomato sauces. With this technique, everything tomatoes, olive oil and seasonings goes into the pot more or less at once, usually with no presaute and simmers until thick. Instead of the distinctively layered tastes of saute-based sauces, the simmered sauce is softer, more tomatoey and mellow.
