I got this
idea from perusing all the delicious choices on Pinterest. This was a wonderful choice as a light
appetizer for our recent “dinner and a movie” with friends. Very flavorful and satisfying. Quick to make – and delightful to eat. The apple is tangy and the combination of
that with “bite” from the delicious gorgonzola and sweet & spicy pecans is
ideal. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 Granny
Smith apple, cored and cut into ¼” dices
4 oz.
crumbly Gorgonzola cheese
2 ½ oz. Sweet
& Spicy Pecans – chopped (From Trader Joe’s. They come in a 5 ounce bag. Use approximately half the bag – or a little
more or less – depending on your liking.)
2 Heaping Tablespoons
Mayonnaise
1 ½
Tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
½ teaspoon
Garlic Powder
¼ teaspoon
Salt
Fresh Ground
Pepper to taste
3 Belgian
Endives
Directions:
Place the
mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper into a bowl. Mix well to thoroughly combine.
Add the
apple dices to the mayonnaise mixture and stir well. Crumble the gorgonzola over the apples and
add the chopped pecans. Stir well to
combine all the ingredients.
You could
prefill the individual Endive cups and arrange on a plate or platter. Or you could place into a bowl and arrange
the Endive cups around it, allowing everyone to serve them.
