Balsamic Peaches

I wanted to create just a quick post to rave about how delicious peaches are when broiled with balsamic vinegar! I thought it sounded like a weird combination, but it's fantastic. Healthy, simple, and quick. They're pretty, and make a nice appetizer, side dish, or dessert. How convenient that it's peach season!
The recipe can't really even be called a recipe because it's so simple, but here it is:

1-2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 peach, halved (remove the pit)

Cut the peach in half, remove the pit, and place the halves cut side up on a piece of foil or a baking tray. Pour enough balsamic vinegar on them to fill the indent where the pit was, and to coat the edges around it. Broil them in a toaster oven or oven for about 5-7 minutes. They're best if you pull them out before they crisp on the top, and they're simply heated through. But if you forget about them for a minute too long and they do burn/crisp, it's easy to just cut this part off and they're fine to eat. I tell you this from experience.

Enjoy! The flavor is reminiscent of a really, really yummy peach pie. In fact, you could even make a bunch of them, and then use them for pie filling. Ooooooh!!!
