Ingredients
- 10 seedless red grapes
- 5 ounces Gorgonzola cheese
- 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Wash and dry the grapes: Rinse the seedless red grapes thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel to ensure no moisture affects the cheese adhesion.
- Cover grapes with Gorgonzola: Using your fingers, place about a tablespoon of Gorgonzola cheese around each grape, carefully covering the entire surface of the grape with the cheese to create a smooth coating.
- Roll grapes in walnuts: Spread the finely chopped walnuts in an even layer on a clean cutting board. Roll each Gorgonzola-covered grape over the walnuts so the cheese is fully coated with the crunchy nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Serve or chill: These can be served immediately as a fresh appetizer or refrigerated for up to a few hours to chill before serving, making them a convenient option for entertaining.
Notes
- Use seedless grapes for easy eating and no hassle.
- Chill the grapes before coating to ensure the cheese sticks better.
- You can substitute walnuts with pecans or almonds if preferred.
- Serve these as elegant hors d’oeuvres with crackers or on a cheese platter.
- Will keep well refrigerated for a few hours but are best enjoyed fresh.
