I am not scared of fruit on sandwiches (such as this green apple panini, or this pear and brie cherry chipotle panini). I’m not scared of fruit in quesadillas. (That includes this quesadilla with red pear.) And I am DEFINITELY not scared of fruit on pizza. I love it! The sweet and salty flavor combinations can be such a delight. Of course there is the pineapple option. But here today is a little bit of PEACH with one of our favorites – goat cheese.
And don’t forget great balsamic flavor too!
