NO RECIPE RECIPE: GRILLED BLUE CHEESE AND FRUIT

Steps:

• Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Meanwhile, spread butter on both slices of bread.
• Once the pan is warm, add 1 piece of bread, buttered side down, and top with cheese and peach slices. Cover with a few arugula leaves, if using. Allow to cook until golden brown and crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Close the sandwich with another slice of bread, buttered side up, then flip and cook until bread is toasted and cheese is melted, another 4 to 5 minutes.
• Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately.

GRILLED ENDIVE AND RADICCHIO WITH GORGONZOLA AND SAGE-INFUSED OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to high heat.
• Heat the olive oil in a small saucepan until hot. Add the sage and allow the sage to infuse its flavor into the oil. Remove from the heat when the sage becomes fragrant and slightly crispy, a few minutes.
• Grill the endive and radicchio until slightly wilted with good grill marks, about 4 minutes per side. Turn the endive and radicchio cut-side up and top with the gorgonzola. Close the lid and grill until the cheese has softened, 2 minutes.
• Remove the endive and radicchio to a platter. Drizzle the infused olive oil over the top. Serve immediately.
