    I love the combination of sweet in savory or vice-versa…looks great this crostinis…great for appetizers.
    Hope you are having a great week Raymund 🙂

  8. I love the sweet and salty! Yum!

  9. Perfect combo of flavours. This recipe makes me miss summer. I bet this would be a great one to adapt to the BBQ to nibble on with a cider while your guests arrive and dinner is being cooked.

  10. Perfect slice of summer on a crostini! Yum!

    I LOVE these! This is the kind of thing I like to make for lunch, so it’s going into my lunch ideas! Love the sweetness of the peaches and the salt bacon. Fabulous!

  12. These sound like heaven! I’ve made something similar with basil in place of the bacon. Not quite the same, but still delicious. Peaches, black pepper, and ricotta belong together in more forms, I say!

    This would be a lovely contribution to this month’s Shine Supper Club. I hope you’ll join us!

  14. I love the balance of salt and sweet.

  15. Hello bacon…I love you.
