Figs!! and yummy recipes

I am a big fan of Bon Appetite. In the September issue there is are two great recipes that I modified into one. Fig Salad and Lamb Chops with fig. Recipe links below.

Salad:

This recipe is great. I was lucky to find some extra soft goat cheese already infused with honey for the dressing. Also I was missing the yogurt and subbed heavy cream for dressing. Also missing watercress. All I'm saying is the figs and dressing make this salad. Don't skip the mint! It is a great pop. But only use small amounts.

Lamb Chops:

Followed this exactly minus the figs and I have to say the cook time is too long! I'm sure it's also dependent on the meat size. I would say seer the meat 3 min each side instead of 5 and reduce the oven time.

The ingredients look so yummy I want to eat them individually!
