Fig & Goat Cheese Bruschetta

August 27, 2018 by Joseph Sciascia Leave a Comment

I love serving fresh fruit bruschetta, I do a similar recipe with strawberries but my favorite is this one with figs.  The tanginess of the goat cheese with the sweet fruit along with the rich balsamic glaze and the crunchy earthy note of the pistachios go so well together; your taste buds will be having a party as well.    Whether it’s a wine tasting party, cocktail party or picnic, bruschetta is always a versatile and easy crowd pleasing appetizer.  Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best.

Don’t be fooled, it almost looks like dessert

If you don’t already have a bottle of balsamic glaze in your pantry, please run out and get one, it’s such a versatile item staple in your kitchen…I use it on almost everything, just not ice cream…yuck
