Strawberry Goat Cheese Bruschetta

This year we’re growing strawberries in our garden. Everyone told us we were crazy and not to do it but we did it anyway. We’ve battled squirrels, birds and other mysterious creatures only to come out on top of enjoying this delicious fruit. We came across a recipe that puts a new twist on the typical bruschetta with tomato and I’m glad we did!

Strawberry Goat Cheese Bruschetta is amazingly tasty and very hard not to over-indulge in. The combination of goat cheese, balsamic vinegar and thyme really brings out the flavor of the strawberries. I’m not sure if I can ever go back to bruschetta with tomatoes!! It may be the fall season, but this recipe is worth a try before we really get into the fall weather!

Enjoy! 🙂
