Ontario Peaches; hubby swears
they are the best in the world! A good
peach is both sweet & juicy; simply luscious! My dad loved peaches too;
would bring home a basket every week and we would devour them! Their season is so short; we’re talking
approx. a 2 week period every summer!
Tried this dish because it uses 2
of hubby’s favourite foods: Peaches and
Gorgonzola Cheese! mmmm… does this dish
deliver! So filling; truly 2 pieces is
enough to satisfy but you can go for a 3rd guilt free!
What seems like seconds to prepare; at only
384 cal per serving (2 pcs); definitely a healthy dish to enjoy with
friends over a glass of white wine on an absolutely gorgeous summer day; like
today!
