SIMPLE GREENS AND FRUIT SALAD WITH GORGONZOLA CHEESE
This is a favorite salad in our house. I change it around to match the fruits of the season. Some of our favorites are: canned mandarin oranges, diced apples, diced pears, fresh berries, or even Craisins. I love the fact I always have something in the fridge to top the salad. My husband doesn't like blue cheese, but the Gorgonzola isn't as strong to him. I use Paul Newman's light dressing, but use one you like!

BABY GREENS WITH A WARM GORGONZOLA DRESSING
This was the result of an attempt to imitate a salad dressing at a restaurant. I did modify it to include bacon and I serve it warm. The dressing is also fantastic over gnocchi or tortellini.

Steps:
- Trim off rim of cheese if it has one. Cut cheese into small cubes.
- Melt the 4 tablespoons butter in a skillet and add 3/4 cup flour, stirring with wire whisk. Add milk, stirring rapidly with whisk. The mixture will be quite thick.
- Add cheese and stir and mash to blend well. Remove from heat. Add egg yolk, mustard and pepper, and stir to blend.
- Line a rimmed baking dish measuring about 7 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches with parchment paper or foil. Pour in batter and smooth over. Let cool and refrigerate an hour or longer, until solidified.

- Unmold Gorgonzola mixture and cut into 12 equal squares.
- Dip each square into remaining flour to coat all over. Dip squares in the eggs to coat and then in the crumb mixture. Continue until all pieces are well coated.

Cook squares on edges as well as top and bottom; the total cooking time is about 2 1/2 minutes. Add squares to skillet until all have been cooked.
