BLISTERED GRAPE AND GOAT CHEESE BRUSCHETTA
Steps:
- Brush both sides of all bread slices with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Toast on a grill pan over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Turn each slice 90 degrees on the same side and cook for another minute so your bread chars with beautiful crisscross grill marks. Flip over and repeat. Rub each slice of hot bread with the cut garlic clove as it comes off the grill.
- Meanwhile, add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil to a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the red grapes and saute until warm and softened, about 3 minutes. Add the green grapes and toss just to warm. Remove to a bowl.
- Add the sage leaves to the hot oil and fry until crisp, 15 to 20 seconds. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of the chevre over one side of each piece of toast, covering completely. Top with a mound of warm grapes on top. Sprinkle a bit of sea salt and a few grinds of pepper over the grapes. Top with a sage leaf. Zest the lemon generously over the top of each slice.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir, lightly frying for about a minute, removing before the garlic gets too brown (it can be golden). Pour the garlic and oil into a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.
- Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don't over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.
- Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they're nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.
- To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.
