I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grilled figs turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I tried this recipe and the grilled figs were a bit too charred. I think I would have grilled them for less time.

The grilled figs were delicious, but the ricotta was a bit bland. I think I would have preferred it with a more flavorful cheese.

These grilled figs were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with less honey.
