This weekend we had a get together with Ryan’s family. We were in charge of appetizers. After throwing out a few ideas, Ryan thought this was a recipe we should try out. It was a big hit & I’d thought I’d share. It’s light, fresh & simple to throw together. Ricotta, gorgonzola & honey spread with apple slices. Ingredients 15  ounce carton whole milk ricotta cheese 6 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled 1/2 teaspoon snipped fresh thyme or 1/4 tsp. dried thyme, crushed 1/4 teaspoon snipped fresh rosemary or 1/8 tsp. dried rosemary, crushed 1 tablespoon honey 36 toasted baguette slices Sliced apples, fresh thyme, and/or toasted walnuts Directions 1. Place ricotta in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in Gorgonzola, 1/2 teaspoon thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon rosemary until combined. Fold in 1 tablespoon honey until just combined. Spoon mixture into a serving bowl. Cover and chill 1 to 24 hours. 2. To serve, spread on baguette slices and top with apple slices, thyme, and/or walnuts. Drizzle with honey. *lemon juice will prevent the apple slices from browning  recipe & image via
