It's Fig Season!Growing up, my only exposure to figs was in Fig Newtons. My grandmother turned me onto fresh figs many years ago just before she died, and I've loved them ever since. They're so sweet and luxurious, and they remind me of her every time I eat them. Aside from eating them as-is, my favorite way to use them is in my fig honey jam or arugula fig salad. If you love fresh figs as much as I do, be sure to check out my collection of 27 Best Fig Recipes for inspiring ways to use them. Not only will you gain access to recipes, but you'll learn nutrition benefits, how to choose and store them, and much more! What's your favorite way to enjoy fresh figs? Hit reply and let me know!
