Figs

I guess it's fig season?  They're all I see all over my Pinterest lately.  I've never, ever cooked/baked with figs before but I'd like to try it out this year.  Does anyone have a favorite fig recipe?  Or a favorite way to snack on them???

I LOVE figs! We just eat them as a snack though I don't cook with them.

Wait, dried or fresh ones?  Because I've had the dried ones before and they're ok as a snack.  But I'm talking fresh.  Never tried anything with them...

Reese isn't a huge fan--granted she was sick when we had them, so she wasn't a huge fan of any new foods. However, she absolutely LOVE dates--she eats them by the container. We go through a container a week as snacks.

I LOVE fresh figs. Last night we made pizza on the grill with figs, carmelized onions, goat cheese, basil, and a bit of sea salt. Yum!

They are also great on crackers with fancy cheese.

If they are fresh, just twist off the stem and slice them up.
