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.

PENNE PASTA WITH TOMATOES, HERBS AND BLUE CHEESE



Penne Pasta With Tomatoes, Herbs and Blue Cheese image

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.
