Mangia Monday!

Hello! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Today I have a simple appetizer recipe for you. It can also be used as part of a main course if you would like! I use raspberry preserves because: 1.) they are my favorite and 2.) I find it goes well with brie. However, you can use any preserve you would like! Enjoy!
