Apricot & Queso Fresco Snack Stacks

19 June 2009 No Comment

snackI had a pretty big lunch yesterday of Indian food (my favorite!) and wasn’t really hungry for a proper dinner last night. I went in the kitchen and decided to get creative with my snacking and came up with this… The most random tastes all put together but I promise you it was fantastic! Next time – I would probably put the ham on the bottom (see picture for obvious logistical purposes… haha) but it’s fun and tasty if you’re just looking for a snack.

  • Wheat Thins
  • Round of queso fresco
  • Medium sliced ham (I love black forest ham)
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • Dried apricots
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Rip off a nice chunk of queso fresco (if you don’t know what it is… wikipedia compares it to a mild feta combined with Indian paneer… I suppose they’re right… but it’s best just to get some!)
  • Stack cheese onto of folded ham and sprinkle pepper all over… top with a half/whole dried apricot.
  • It tastes great with a drizzle of balsamic on the top – but I found out that it seriously cuts into the amount of time you have to eat it before the cracker gets too soggy to pick up.
    Happy snacking… !
