Strawberry Goat Cheese Bruschetta

Strawberry bruschetta is a thing of beauty! The way the tangy, slightly salty goat cheese works with the syrupy, balsamic-coated strawberries and crispy, charred bread is simply delicious.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • ½ cup balsamic vinegar

  • 12 slices Italian bread

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 pound strawberries, washed and diced

  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, plus more for serving

  • 1 cup goat cheese, room temperature

  • salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Heat vinegar in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Simmer until reduced by about half, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.

  2. Prepare a grill for high heat. Place bread slices on a foil-lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.

  3. Combine strawberries and thyme in a small bowl and set aside.

  4. Grill bread on the preheated grill until browned, about 3 minutes per side.

  5. Spread goat cheese on toasted bread. Add black pepper, salt, and reduced vinegar to the strawberry mixture. Spoon over the goat cheese topped bruschetta. Garnish with additional thyme.

Chef's Note

You can toast the bread under the broiler instead of on a grill if needed.

Chocolate and lamb in chili? Of Course!!! This is a wonderful chili recipe, concocted by my son Bryan. We use Icelandic lamb because it is really lean. Lean lamb is a must.

Bacalao a la Vizcaina (Basque-Style Codfish Stew)

Bacalao (salted, dried codfish) stars in this Spanish-style fish stew from the Basque region of Spain. This traditional dish is popular in all Spanish-speaking countries; in fact, each country's version is slightly different. In Mexico, it's usually made for Christmas, New Year's Eve, and Lent. In Puerto Rico, it's enjoyed during Lent but also year-round. This is one of the Puerto Rican versions.

Apple Cider Cut-Out Cookies

These apple cider cutout cookies take some time to make, but are worth the effort. They're a no-spread, shortbread-like cookie, full of spiced apple flavor. The icing uses both fresh and reduced cider; the apple flavor really comes through the day after the cookies are baked.

Lahanosalata (Greek Cabbage Salad)

This Greek cabbage salad is simplicity at its best. It's a mainstay in Greek homes, especially in winter. The crunchy shredded cabbage takes center stage, and I prefer to mix in some carrots too, although this is optional. This salad will keep for two to three days in the fridge.
