Grape Tartlets
Ingredients:
15 pre-made phyllo dough shells/cup
1 cup sliced red, seedless grapes 
Splash of olive oil
4 ounces of goat cheese (room temperature)
The zest on one lemon
Instructions:

Toss the cut grapes with olive oil and a generous pinch of Stella's Table Sea Salt.  Spread them out on a cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes until the grapes become slightly caramelized. Remove from the oven and set aside.

To a large bowl, add the goat cheese, lemon honey jelly, lemon zest, and a pinch of lemon garlic sea salt. Blend with a hand mixer until creamy.

Fill the cups about two-thirds full and place them in the oven at 375 degrees for 15 minutes just to let the cheese set a bit.

Once out of the oven, top each cup with three grapes and finish with a tiny sprinkle of lemon garlic sea salt. Serve.
