4 Potluck Recipes Everyone Over 35 Should Know How to Make

Bruschetta is lovely but fig, goat cheese and rosemary toast takes the concept to a whole new level. Rosen promises these handheld appetizers or snacks instantly liven up any table; plus, it's the perfect back-pocket recipe for when you don't have a lot of time but want to bring something homemade to a party. You start with slices of whole-wheat bread (from a bakery); spread soft goat cheese on top; then lay fig slices (fresh or dried work, as do apples or pears) over the cheese and sprinkle chopped rosemary on top. Drizzle some honey across the toasts and sprinkle with salt for a savory-sweet finish.
