GORGONZOLA TOASTS

1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1/2 cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
1 clove garlic, pressed
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 loaf coarse-textured Italian or French bread
About 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Preheat grill with lid down and burners on high for 10 minutes.

Combine cheeses, pine nuts, garlic and pepper in small bowl. Toss lightly with fork and set aside.

Cut bread into 1/2-inch-thick slices and lightly brush both sides of each slice with olive oil.

When grill is hot, turn burners to low. Place bread on grill, close lid and toast lightly for a minute or two. Turn bread and top each slice with some of the cheese mixture, pressing down slightly with fork. Close lid and bake a few minutes, until cheese begins to melt.

Serve hot.
