my favorite app.....dates wrapped in bacon

-take a date and stuff an almond into it. cut pieces of uncooked bacon in half. wrap the bacon around the date and secure with a toothpick. sprinkle with brown sugar. bake at 350 for about 15-20 min til sugar is bubbly. if they don't brown well enough (sometimes they do, sometimes they don't) i will turn the broiler on for 5 minutes.

Baby gouda wrapped in puffed pastry. - it's so easy. Let the gouda come to room temperature, wrap it up in the puffed pastry and bake at 350 for about 20 minutes or so until the pastry is all golden brown. It's yummy. The gouda gets all melty.

this is heaven in a mouthful.

I feel like this is pretty easy

crisp up slices of pancetta or proscuitto in the oven.

top each little slice with a teaspoon of goat cheese and a slice of fresh fig or a slice of a plump and juicy dried one.
