Stuffed Dates
I’m part of a book club (I actually can’t believe I’m typing that because I’ve always wanted to be in one LOL) and we had our first meeting this week! I volunteered to create a new recipe that was easy to make, delicious, and can be enjoyed with ANY type of beverage.
And voila!
These stuffed dates were born!
The perfect combo of salty and sweet all wrapped up (literally) in one simple appetizer. Keep this one on hand for the next time you’re attending a dinner party, book club meeting, get-together, etc.!!
Stuffed Dates (as many as you like/need!)
Ingredients:
as many dates as you like
pack of prosciutto
goat cheese (the honey goat cheese from Trader Joe’s is *chef’s kiss*)
pistachios, chopped
balsamic glaze
flake salt or sea salt to top
Instructions:
slice dates in half lengthwise. remove and discard the pit
stuff one side on the date with a generous amount of goat cheese and close date
wrap date in prosciutto
top with a drizzle of balsamic glaze, chopped pistachios, and flake salt
serve and enjoy!
notes:
if you want your prosciutto crispy you can totally bake these dates! simply preheat your oven to 400°f, complete steps 1-3 then place dates on a lined baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes then top with balsamic glaze, pistachios, and a little salt (baking the prosciutto brings out the salt content so this will make your dates saltier!)
feel free to use brie or mascarpone in place of goat cheese
