Party Cheese

Party Cheese

Serve this on its own or as part of Rachael's easiest holiday buffet ever!

Ingredients

  • 1 6-pound wheel (smaller if you can find it or a large wedge for less people) of gorgonzola, Stilton or blue cheese
  • 2 cups walnut or pecan pieces, toasted and chopped
  • 1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
  • 8 to 12 pears, mixed variety such as Sickle, Bosc, red Anjou, green Anjou, Forelle, Comice, Bartlett, some sliced and some left whole
  • A loaf of fruity nut bread and/or a baguette

Yields: About 20 servings


Preparation

Step

Chop together the toasted walnuts and parsley, roll the wheel of cheese in the mixture, coating it completely or just the top.

Place on a serving plate or platter and arrange the sliced pears around it. Keep some pears whole for the platter because it will look pretty. Serve with bread alongside.
