I miss fresh figs. Got some last time I was in California and got my friend K hooked on them.
I can beat up demons until the cows come home, and then I can beat up the cows.

ION, I'll be getting figs in my next CSA box. We've never had figs before (literally). What does one DO with them?
Cut the figs in half. Spread a nice smear of goat cheese or chevre on each half. Wrap each half in a slice of prosciutto. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, and roast them for about 8 to 10 minutes.
This will make your mouth very happy.

Not to be difficult, but are there any non-cheese suggestions? Lactose-intolerant here, and while I will occasionally risk it (with lactose pills), I prefer to keep as lactose free as possible.

Our wings are not tired.
Mmmm, figs!
And erin, I did wonder if you could stand, but then I thought "but standing and doing her job for HOURS would be exhausting".
I had one employee for a long time that always worked standing up at a high table we had. He had previous back surgery and said he was much more comfortable that way. He would sit and socialize at lunch, then go back to work standing. Although I hope that this doesn't become necessary, Erin!!!

Sorry, Epic. That's the only fig recipe I know.

Bacon or prosciutto wrapped is good even without the cheese. Goat cheese doesn't bother my lactose intolerance, but your intolerance may be different.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I've had this and it was deelish. [link] I think you can leave out the parmesan.

No worries. I still marked it 'cuz it sounds yummy. And I think sj's right about goat cheese being a little easier on me than cow. I just thought I'd solicit for further ideas.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Same here. But, if you like tahini, it's a good dipping sauce for figs. I think.

Naked. Figs on their own are plenty delish.
