Merry Christmas! Here is an easy and festive recipe that is sure to be a hit.

 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

 Ingredients:

French Baguette (how many depends on how many people – 1 long baguette is good for 4-6 people)

Olive oil, Mascarpone Cheese, Fig jam, Prosciutto, Arugula, Balsamic Reduction Glaze (usually on the condiment or vinegar aisle)

1.  Slice the baguette into about ½” diagonal slices.
2. Brush with some olive oil
3. Place in one layer on a baking sheet and bake until just crispy -watch closely so you don’t overbrown them

6. Spread a small amount of the fig jam on top of the mascarpone cheese
7. Place a small piece of prosciutto on top of the cheese
8. Arrange arugula nicely on top of the prosciutto
