Strawberry Balsamic Chutney . With Valentines Day upon, we have once again decided to feature four new recipes this week for a romantic dinner with your sweetheart. This Strawberry Balsamic Chutney and Goat Cheese Bruschetta leads the way.

Fresh ripe perfect strawberries.

Our first recipe embraces bright red Valentine color in these very tasty nibbles. You can serve them before the main meal with either a chilled glass of white wine or a mellow red, like a Merlot.

Frozen berries can make the recipe more economical.

This recipe takes Strawberries to the savoury side while retaining a little some of their natural sweetness. The sweetness balances the robust flavours in the rest of the chutney and goat cheese.

The chutney is an easy quick-cooked version, meant to be served warm with the goat cheese. My daughter and I shared this plate and agreed that the combination is scrumptious.
