Recipe Box, Roasted Stone Fruit and Berry Salad
When I ate the first bite of this salad I said “Pie! It’s tastes just like pie!”
The warm fruit with the creamy gorgonzola was like a bite of a peach cobbler or strawberry pie…
This salad is no guilt heaven!
Slice a peach, a plum a few strawberries and add raspberries or blueberries
Place on an olive oil sprayed, foil lined baking sheet
Top with reduced fat Gorgonzola cheese crumbles
Place in a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes
The cheese melts and the fruit softens and renders a sweet juice
Place this luscious mixture on top of a bowl of mixed greens
Add a sprinkle of Praline Pecans and a piece or two of maple bacon if you like
That’s it!
The juices from the roasted fruit and the melted gorgonzola will coat the greens and your eyes will roll and you’ll want to smile, but you’ll be too busy chewing and eye rolling and OMG ing
Yep, it’s that good… 😋

Wow, what a beautiful salad! I need to try this…I mean, you said it tastes like pie, so it’s gotta be good!
Hope you have a good weekend!
I love this idea for a salad Jenna! I can just imagine how wonderful the roasted fruit and melted blue cheese are together!
Jenna, this salad sounds divine! Can’t wait to try it. I spent a few days this week at the beach house and visited Oh So Coastal — oh, my, such lovely things! And guess what? They opened a second store on Hwy 59 which is just a few minutes from my house. Had to exercise restraint to only buy a few simple decor pieces — some driftwood candle holders. Lots to think and dream about in their stores!
Uh oh, now I’m going to have to go check that one out! They also have a store on Canal Road that’s called Coastal Cottage, it’s a little smaller, but full of wonderful stuff! Thanks Joanne! >
We visited both Oh So Coastal stores (the one in Orange Beach and Foley) and while they carry the same style of furniture and decor, each store carried different stock. So many goodies and choices!
This sounds really delicious!
Thanks for joining Cooking and Crafting with J & J!
