This dish pairs nicely with a green salad and grilled chicken or fish.

Apricots and Cherries with Ricotta and Thyme

Move oven rack to second position from the heat element. Preheat broiler to high. Spray a 8-1/2-by-11-inch jelly roll pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Mix together salt, olive oil and balsamic glace in small bowl.

Place apricots in prepared pan. Scatter cherries on top. Drizzle olive oil mixture evenly over the fruit. Lay thyme sprigs on top of the fruit.

Broil fruit mixture (not too close to flame; adjust shelf position if needed) until tender, juicy and slightly gooey. The edges may brown or even begin to blacken as sugars caramelize, approximately 15 minutes.

Remove from oven; tuck spoonfuls of ricotta around the cooked fruit. Sprinkle with goat cheese.

Return pan to broiler until cheese is slightly brown and melted.

Remove pan from broiler; carefully remove charred thyme sprigs if desired. Sprinkle broiled fruit with chopped fresh parsley and thyme.

Serve immediately on pieces of grilled whole grain bread, whole wheat pita wedges, water crackers or other plain cracker of choice.
