How to improve a peach (hint, add cheese)

My lovely Aunt Jeanette wrote a cookbook Bistro Cooking with Jeanette a few years ago. It’s a beginner-friendly guide to a wide range of Mediterranean bistro cooking, including fresh takes on some Middle Eastern staples like baklava and kofta kebabs. Jeanette has been teaching cooking for over 30 years, and she makes cooking an everyday possibility with her uncomplicated dishes. So here is the first of more to come, Bistro Cooking with Jeanette, part I:

 

Peach Gorgonzola Bruschetta

Prep time 20 mins, makes 6 servings.

Ingredients:

6 ounces Gorgonzola cheese

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

6 slices French bread, cut ½ inch thick

2 large ripe peaches, unpeeled

Several basil leaves for garnish

Place Gorgonzola cheese and olive oil in a food processor, and process until smooth. Spread the mixture on the slices of French bread.

Cut peaches in half. Separate each peach from its pit by gently twisting the halves in opposite directions. Slice peaches vertically into ¼ inch slices. Place 4 slices of peach on each piece of the prepared sliced bread. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.

Serve immediately. Enjoy!

I definitely saw that one coming. Considering the name of site. :) Interesting addition, I haven't tried that one yet but it could be a tasty like dish.

once again. Even at one:30 PM, the streets were already crowded with households and visitors, and what were an even bigger amount of police. Additionally , it appeared like virtually everybody was donning a social affair hat, or even a group of 2011 fake eyeglasses, or some other sort of celebratory costume or adornment.
