Blue Cheese Honey Appetizer – easy 3 ingredient recipe. Bold blue cheese drizzled with honey. Serve with warm, sliced bread and fresh fruit.
For the record, I can’t take credit for this recipe but I’m so happy to pass it along to you. I ate years ago on a girls’ weekend and have been making it on repeat ever since – it’s that good!
It’s hardly a recipe at all – but more of an idea and I guarantee you can’t mess it up. Simple, understated, it packs serious flavor punch and takes almost no time to whip up.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS RECIPE:
- It only calls for 3 ingredients!
- No cooking involved.
- I can make it in under 10 minutes and the flavor it (insert chef’s kiss)!
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BLUE CHEESE AND GORGONZOLA?
Blue cheese is a general category of cheeses that have the prominent blue-green “veins” running through it.
Gorgonzola is a specific variety of the blue cheese family, one of the oldest blue cheeses and is produced mainly in northern Italy.
WHAT DO I NEED TO MAKE BLUE CHEESE HONEY APPETIZER?
Because there are only 3 ingredients, use the best quality available to you.
- wedge of good quality blue cheese
- locally sourced honey (if available) – use more or less to your taste
- Sliced baguette (optional: fresh fruit)
HOW TO MAKE BLUE CHEESE HONEY APPETIZER:
Bring the cheese to room temperature.
Add to a serving platter or wood board. Crumble some of it and drizzle honey over the top.
Serve with warm sliced bread and (optional) sliced apples or pears.

WHAT BEVERAGES GO BEST WITH THIS EASY APPETIZER?
I like a nice dry white wine or Rosé. Prosecco would also be good but go light, not a heavy red.
Enjoy!

I was also on a girls trip to South Haven Mi. where we stopped in to Taste and had this AMAZING app. We ordered a second round. I have since made it for my ladies wine time nights.
Hi Kathy – I literally could not get enough of this restaurant! We also had their Chicken Pesto Mac and Cheese that was out of this world good! I have my version on the site if you’re interested in trying it. – Thanks for commenting – makes me want to go back again!!
