BLUE CHEESE CROSTINI
"My sister-in-law gave me this great recipe, which includes two of my favorite ingredients-blue cheese and pears. Yum!" writes Kate Hilts of Grand Rapids, Michigan. TIP: "Instead of a loaf of French bread, I usually buy a baguette and cut it at an angle to give the slices a nice look," Kate adds.

BLUE CHEESE SPREAD
My own blue cheese spread...you can use it with crackers and/or veggies for a flavorful appetizer. Bake on slices of baguette for a tasy crostini. Place inside burgers before baking or just spread it on the bun. The cranberries are optional but add a slight bit of sweetness and very pretty color.
