Ah, blue cheese. Don\u2019t you wish there was a way to work it into every facet of your day? With these recipes, you can! The following blue cheese recipes all offer twists on familiar dishes to serve to guests, have for dinner, or indulge in dessert.

Bruschetta with Stichelton, Purple Sprouting Broccoli, and Capers<\/h3>\n

Forget your mother\u2019s bruschetta—this twist from Petersham Nurseries Caf\u00e9<\/a> uses Stichelton. Similar to Stilton, Stichelton<\/a> differs in that it uses unpasteurized rather than pasteurized cow\u2019s milk. The savory and spicy flavors from the cheese mix well with saltiness of the capers.<\/p>\n

Polenta Chips with Gorgonzola Dressing<\/h3>\n

All right, so buying chips in a bag and dip in a jar is easy and delicious, but you can shock and impress all your friends by making polenta chips and the dressing<\/a> to go along with it. The garlic and saltiness of the chips should balance well against the creaminess of the sweet gorgonzola<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings with Blue Cheese Dip<\/h3>\n

The football season may be over, but with March Madness just around the corner, you\u2019ll need a good sports snack while you\u2019re glued to the TV. This recipe<\/a> from culture<\/strong> substitutes in yogurt for sour cream and calls for baked rather than fried wings, making this delicious snack a little healthier. Concoct the dip from any blue cheese you\u2019d like (we recommend Maytag Blue<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Open-Face Beef & Blue Cheese Sandwich with Crispy Onion Topping<\/h3>\n

Add some pizzazz to your roast beef with roasted red peppers, horseradish, blue cheese, and crispy onions with this restaurant-worthy dish<\/a> from culture<\/strong>. You can use whatever blue cheese you prefer—try Firefly Farms Black and Blue<\/a> if you\u2019re looking for suggestions\u2014—and let the cheese melt in between the beef and hot, crispy onions.<\/p>\n

Cobb Grilled Cheese<\/h3>\n

Here\u2019s a chance to turn away from your usual grilled cheese with Kraft singles. Go ahead, they\u2019ll be waiting for you when you get back. This take<\/a> from foodiecrush<\/em> offers not only Gouda and blue cheese but all the flavors you\u2019d get from a Cobb salad: chicken, bacon, avocado and eggs. It\u2019s a meal unto itself and that\u2019s a beautiful thing.<\/p>\n

Mac and Blue Cheese<\/h3>\n

Another twist on a classic dish from how sweet it is<\/em> takes your mac and cheese<\/a> to the next level! The options to mix up mac and cheese are virtually limitless so you shouldn’t be afraid to experiment. This particular recipe calls for fontina, gorgonzola, and buttermilk blue, but feel free to substitute in any of the blues you have leftover in your fridge. Eating a dish like this, you can almost forget the cold outside. Almost.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Dessert<\/h2>\n

Blue Cheese and Fig Shortbread<\/h3>\n

Yep, it’s true: You can make desserts from blue cheese. These shortbread cookies<\/a> combine blue cheese and butter for the ultimate creamy richness and come topped with figs to offer you a hint of sweet. Try them with your after-dinner glass of wine.<\/p>\n

Blue Cheesecake<\/h3>\n

Here’s the fact I’ve learned from these recipes: figs and blue cheese go really well together. For this cheesecake<\/a>, you\u2019ll end up with a rich and savory cake to balance against the crust made from oatcakes and pulverized walnuts. Top it with a drizzle of honey and serve with figs or grapes.<\/p>\n
