BAKED PUMPKIN WITH GOAT CHEESE, COCOA BEANS AND HONEY

Here's how to have a special dinner with very few ingredients: the sweetness of the pumpkin goes perfectly with the strong taste of the goat's cheese, which is contrasted on the one hand by the bitter-sweetness of chestnut honey and on the other by the toasted-almost smoky flavor of cocoa beans. Very simple, easy, fast and delicious!
