Stuffed Apricots

It's been hot- did you notice?  So we were invited to a picnic and I wanted to bring something light, cool and DIFFERENT.  I searched and came up with these puppies - Pistachio Stuffed Apricots.  They were easy peasey and to boot -- I got to use one of my 3 cool deviled egg plates that have been in the cabinet for over 5 years! 

A closer look.....

Even closer look....

They were delicious!  Perfect seasonal appetizer...which I will most generously share my version with you!

Top the top with some extra chopped pistachios.
