Jam & Cheese

I'll be honest, there is something about strawberry jam and brie that makes me happy.  They go together perfectly.  Sweet & creamy.  It's almost like they're bbf's, the way they compliment each other.  Served along side some crackers, a glass of wine and you have the perfect dish to entertain with.   Best of all, this is super easy to prepare and is ready in no time flat.

Get ready for compliments, just don't let all of them go to your head.
