The idea of figs and cheese is sort of a take-off from the idea of eating protein with fruits. You know...like apples with cheese. Figs and cheese are just for us grown up kids.
Here is a link to where I originally posted my recipe:
Figs with Goat Cheese & Balsamic Vinegar
But basically, you cut the figs in half, press some goat cheese or bleu cheese into the center, heat under the broiler for a few minute and then drizzle with balsamic vinegar. The better the vinegar you use the better the taste is going to be. Adding goat cheese gives a much milder taste for those who don't appreciate the stout taste of gorgonzola cheeses.
I like to serve them on top of a bed of mixed greens. Not only does it look good but they taste great with the mixed greens too. These make a great snack or side dish for any dinner.
