I’ve got two people in my life with access to fig trees, which means I’m in fig heaven.  I’ve been inundating my Instagram stories with photos of figs and fig pizza in the past week or two, so much so that people may think I’m a bit obsessed.

I’m here to tell you that I’m definitely obsessed. 🙂

Aren’t they gorgeous?

Every year I get copious amounts of figs and if you’re familiar with them, you know they get overly ripe very fast.  

That means I’ve been making my Fig Jam a lot lately, as well as this Grilled Fig, Bacon and Arugula Flatbread Pizza.
