GOAT CHEESE STUFFED FIGS WITH BALSAMIC DRIZZLE
Figs, goat cheese, toasted pecan and a fig balsamic drizzle, need I say more?
These came out so very delicious and I can see serving them so many different ways. How about as a side to chicken or pork or as a stand alone appetizer. I'm also thinking in the middle of a beautiful salad using the balsamic drizzle over the salad. I can even imagine serving these on the side of a vanilla bean ice cream for dessert.
Can you think of any dish that can be used from start to finish in a meal? Really amazing little treats are these.

Cut your figs from top to bottom being careful not to cut all the way through. Toast pecans in a fry pan after smashing with a kitchen hammer. Mix nuts in to the goat cheese. Using two spoons place filling in the figs. Arrange on a baking pan right side up using the figs to lean against each other to keep standing, Place under the broiler for 5 minutes until the goat cheese is soft. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar when plating. Serve warm and get ready for a most delicious treat.
I hope you enjoy these beautiful delicious stuffed figs.
To your good health,
