Baked Blue Cheese Stuffed Colossal Black Olives

1. 1

   Filling -- Just mix the cheeses, garlic, shallot, red pepper, and black pepper. No salt needed as the cheese and olives provide enough salty flavor. Mix well breaking up the bleu cheese and make sure that the filling is creamy.

2. 2

   Stuffing -- You can use a pastry bag, but I personally use a small ziplock or plastic baggie. Then cut a tip off of one of the corners, squeeze the bag, and stuff the olives.

3. 3

   Walnuts -- You can sometimes find them chopped, but if not, just use a small food processor or you can chop them by hand. You want them fine chopped.

4. 4

   After you have stuffed the olives. I dip the two ends with the cheese into the ground nuts to give a little crunch.

5. 5

   Skewers -- Before I skewer them I let the olives chill after stuffing. Then, depending on what size skewer you use, add as many olives as you want. I prefer to use the small skewers and add 3 olives per skewer for a nice bite size appetizer.

6. 6

   Heat them up, either in the microwave (1-2 minutes on 60% power) or in the oven, 350 for about 5-7 minutes. Just until warm and the cheese is heated through.

   ENJOY!
