I had them for last Christmas dinner and they were to die for. The extended length of cooking helps dull the pungent flavor that many people don't like about Blue Cheese allowing my crowd of non-Blue cheese eaters to enjoy them as well. Great photo! http://thefoodmonsterblog.blogspot.com

But I do enjoy experimenting to get something that looks equally good. This recipe really sounds great - unlike you I do like blue cheese so i will certainly try this out!

I can't imagine myself making whatever it is because I have no photo evidence it can happen. I am so often enticed by food photos that I really don’t like when a photo doesn’t accompany a recipe.

I would take bites of Mr. Right's wedge salads and like them. Then I had a steak with blue cheese on it and there was no going back after that. I'll make these, and I bet they'll be a hit around here. I mean there's bacon involved so it can't be that bad... :o) I was never a huge fan of blue cheese until I was in my 30′s.

The pic is pretty--it does make me want to snatch that tater! Totally with you on needing pictures to go with the recipes!!! Not only does it help whet my appetite, but it helps my need to know how a dish *should* look if the directions were followed properly. :) Not that my creations ever really come close to the pics.... :) Hmm, I don’t think I’ve ever had blue cheese.

I rank blue cheese up there with great taste, adult taste. I didn't love it until a few years ago and now I can't live without it. I will def try making this, seems fairly easy!
