I love this sweet/savory combo. I might add a little fresh goat cheese I just picked up too. Love the colors!

Yes, not only is it tasty but it is visually appealing too. Goat cheese would add a nice creaminess to it - will give it a try!

Am thinking of grilling a fish this weekend and this will be dynamite with it.

I just availed myself of the bounty of produce at my local farmer's market. We made this for dinner tonight. It was absolute heaven. Thank you for sharing this with us.
