Good Eats Monday - Summer Figs

Summer...
Sometimes it's just too Hot to Cook!

So today is...no cook good eats.

Summer Figs + Cheese + Cured Meat + Honey & Nuts = A Plateful of Light Dinner

Yes...and don't forget the wine and a loaf of crusty bread


We chose a Mini Goat Cheese Brie & Prosciutto 
with a handful of Walnuts and Clover Honey 

The Figs - Beautifully Ripen

The Honey binds all the flavors together

You can also put all the ingredients onto a bed of greens with a balsamic vinaigrette (made with honey, grape-seed oil and a quality balsamic, salt & pepper) 


A couple of great Summer wines to pair with:
Italian Bubbly - Prosecco di Valdobbiadene, Mionetto - NV








French Rose - 2010 Cave de Tavel "Lauzeraies" Tavel
