HONEYED BLUE CHEESE TOAST



Honeyed Blue Cheese Toast image

I *love* these. With a nice rich white wine... these are delicious, and easy breezy to make! This is another recipe that I make from the school of 'some'; there's really not amount to how much to use, just a 'bit' of everything. This recipe is great because your oven temp is not very important. Making a pie while making these? just stick it in the oven! All you need is for the cheese to melt and the bread, cheese, and honey to warm through.

BROILED PEAR AND PROSCIUTTO TOASTS



Broiled Pear and Prosciutto Toasts image

Here is a wonderful little snack, or brunch item, that is a testament to it's ingredients--not the maker. A broiled pear slice draped across hot molten cheese toast, then topped with crispy prosciutto. So satisfying, yet so easy to prepare. It is a perfect stand-alone, or accompaniment to creamy soups!

I love those cheesy garlic bread toasts they sell in the freezer section. These are like them. Use with your favorite meal or under the Recipe #139579. I found these in Cuisine at Home.
