Directions
Goat Cheese-Stuffed Figs Wrapped in Bacon, This is another of the recipes that disappeared so quickly that I didn’t get to take a photo of them they are that good!! They have a little bit of sweet from the fig, some tang from the cheese, and salt from the bacon A great balance of flavors! The aged goat cheese called for in this recipe is firmer than fresh and has a dry rind Two of the kinds that work best in this dish are Bucheron and Pouligny-St Pierre, both have just the right amount of tang , Quick easy and very tasty
