Fig Bruschetta

Compliments of OV Harvest

Ingredients:

1 baguette loaf sliced crosswise 1/2 inch thick
1 jar (8.4 oz) fig jam
8 oz. Mascarpone or goat cheese
2 ripe fresh figs, halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Traditional or Fig Balsamic vinegar
Microgreens

Directions:

Toast the bread in a toaster and, while still warm, spread the fig spread on each slice to cover it entirely. Place the cheese in a bowl and heat in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds, until it’s creamy and spreadable. Spread a layer of the cheese on the fig spread, leaving the edges of the fig spread visible. Top with a few slices of fresh fig and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Cut each toast crosswise to make appetizers that will be easy to eat. Lightly drizzle each piece with the balsamic vinegar and top with a few microgreens. Serve at room temperature. Serves 6-8
