TOMATO AND BLUE CHEESE SALSA
Another of my favorites, also out of a newspaper years ago. This is fantastic on steaks cooked on the grill, and as a dressing on baked potatoes. Use your imagination!!! I'm sure this would be just as good with other vegies, and chicken or fish.

BLUE CHEESE AND TOMATO SALAD
My husband and I love blue cheese dressing and I modeled this salad on a Blue Cheese and Tomato Salad that we were once served in a resturant. We love it! You can also use bottled Chunky Blue Cheese Salad Dressing, but this homemade dressing is better!

PENNE PASTA WITH TOMATOES, HERBS AND BLUE CHEESE
Absolutely fantastic pasta dish. This dish is always a hit. I've been making it for about 10 years and I still get lots of requests for it. It is based on a recipe I found in "The California Wine Country Cookbook II" that I purchased on a visit to the Kenwood Vineyards. I usually serve with a Cesear Salad and Bruschetta.
