Prosciutto, Goat Cheese & Fig Crostini

I'm always looking for quick and easy new appetizer recipes, but I also want them to be delicious!  You want a go to dish that you can bring to book club or to dinner at a friend's house.  These little crostinis might be my new favorite go to appetizer for just about any occasion.  The combination of prosciutto, goat cheese and fig is delightful! And who doesn't love crostini?  I found these delicious little apps on the Italian Dish's blog.

Finish off these crostinis with a fresh basil leaf for garnish and a pop of color!
