Do you like figs? I HAVE FOUND that figs are very hard to find at the grocery story. (Are they highly seasonal?) And also, when they do have them, they do not last long before turning. Like, almost have to use them the same day. So this recipe is a treat when we can get it! This is a bruschetta remixed with figs and blue cheese. Figs are one of my husband’s favorite foods and blue cheese is one of my so this was welcomed in our home. Drizzle a little honey on top. What a delight!
