Weekends are the
time for casual fare. Simple salads, soups, and sandwiches all tend to be
welcome when time is best spent having fun rather than stuck in the
kitchen. Personally, I enjoy a nice fruit and cheese plate, a lavish one in
place of a formal dinner, or a simple one for lunch, Just give me some warm brie, multi-grain crackers, and a side of fruit, and I’m a happy girl. If you’re
looking to do the same, have I got a recipe for
you!
Instead of serving
cold slices of apple, pear, or bunches of grapes, why not season the grapes
with herbs, roast them, and serve them slightly warm? This is so easy and so
delicious you’ll have a hard time stopping yourself from eating them all. Adapted from one on Allrecipes.com, I found a
mixture of three types of grapes to be visually appealing as well as a
wonderful combination of tastes.
Herb Roasted Balsamic Grapes
Olive oil
2 teaspoons chopped
fresh thyme
2 teaspoons chopped
fresh oregano
1 tablespoon
balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly
ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 375ยบF.
In a medium bowl,
toss together grapes, olive oil, chopped thyme, and chopped oregano to coat.
Place grapes on foil or parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake until grapes
begin to wrinkle and split, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven, drizzle with
balsamic vinegar, and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve
immediately as a snack or in combination with a cheese or appetizer plate.

That sounds like a terrific idea. I've made grapes approximately that way as a part of a chicken dish (they were roasted in the pan at the last minute), but not to accompany cheese. All good!
