Fabulous Fruit & Cheese Plate

After a morning at the farmer's market, an afternoon of yardwork, and my mother-in-law in town, dinner was a long way off.  To bridge the gap between light lunch and big dinner, something delicious, simple, and easy to put together was a must.  Combining fresh fruits from the market with items in my pantry, I was able to create a fantastic appetizer that filled us up long enough to get dinner made!




Fruit & Cheese Plate

1 persimmon, sliced
1 pear, sliced
1/2 c. raspberries
water crackers (or whatever you have)
8 oz. sharp white cheddar cheese, sliced
1/2 c. gorgonzola cheese, crumbled into large chunks

Arrange all your beautiful fresh fruits, crackers, and cheeses on a plate and enjoy.
