Recipes with Our Olive Oils and Balsamics

Strawberry Balsamic Appetizer


For one dozen appetizers:
12 Triscuit Cracked Pepper & Olive Oil crackers
12 tsp. softened cream cheese
6 ripe, sweet strawberries, halved
Strawberry or traditional Balsamic Vinegar
(Note: If you can’t find the triscuits, you can mix a little olive oil and lots of cracked black pepper into the cream cheese and use a neutral flavored cracker.)
Wash the strawberries, remove the tops and cut them in half. You want to use the sweetest, ripe strawberries you can find for this. The contrast in flavors between the sweetness of the strawberries with the balsamic vinegar and black pepper is what makes this so interesting.
Place a teaspoon of cream cheese on each of the crackers. Top with a strawberry half.
Place the assembled appetizers on a serving dish and add a drop or two of balsamic vinegar to the top of each strawberry.
Enjoy!
