Directions
Yep, strawberries, balsamic and bacon. It’s delicious! Eat one of these and you will wonder why it took so long to bring all these together before. Slightly acidic aged balsamic envelops the strawberries sweetness, while the spicy peppered creamy mascarpone highlights the berry natural sweetness. The smoky crispy bacon adds that salty edge with a slight crunch and remember thinly sliced Prosciutto can be substituted, just begin with ¼ of olive oil to fry it in. Yield: 30 pieces1.
