I love fresh figs and they are in season again!!!! So I wanted to make a really easy salad where they shine. You are welcome to add goat cheese to this, but I’m sensitive to dairy, so I left it out. If you made cashew kreme cheese or have some leftover in your fridge, that would be a wonderful dairy free addition to this salad. I kept the salad dressing really simple with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and threw in some pine nuts to keep with the Mediterranean (and/or Italian) theme.
