CRISPY BLUE CHEESE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss potato wedges with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place in single layer in baking dish.
• Bake 30 min. or until potatoes are tender.
• Mix bacon, cheddar cheese and blue cheese; sprinkle over potatoes. Bake an additional 5 min. or until cheeses are melted.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH WARM BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil, rosemary, lemon zest and juice and some salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet and roast until tender, about 35 minutes.
• For the blue cheese sauce: While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the flour begins to toast, about 3 minutes. Add the rosemary and nutmeg and cook, whisking, for 15 seconds more. Add the milk, bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cheese and 2 tablespoons of the chives.
• Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl. Top with the cheese sauce and garnish with the minced Fresno, torn parsley and remaining chives.

CRISPY GRILLED POTATOES WITH BLUE CHEESE, CHIVES AND BACON

Steps:

• Heat a grill or barbecue to 500°F.
• Use a sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil (or two sheets of regular) to line a baking sheet. Make a ridge around the edges of the foil. Spread the foil with a teaspoon or two of olive oil (or butter if you prefer.)
• Place the scrubbed and halved baby potatoes cut side down on the foil. Add some fresh rosemary if you'd like. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer the foil pack on the baking sheet to the grill. Slide the foil pack off the baking sheet and onto the preheated grill.
• Cook over a hot grill (500°F.) until potatoes are almost fork tender. Resist the urge to turn them before they're crispy on the underside. Use tongs or a flipper to turn each potato piece so they'll get crispy on both sides.
• When fork tender, sprinkle with blue cheese and close the lid of the grill. When the cheese has melted, remove the foil pack to the baking sheet to safely transfer it back to the kitchen. Sprinkle with cooked bacon bits, chives, rosemary, thyme or your favourite herbs. Serve right away.

FRIED SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI & BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• If using frozen gnocchi, thaw the gnocchi to room temperature. (Frozen gnocchi will splatter grease more -- best to thaw it first)
• To a medium skillet, add about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil and heat over medium high heat to about 350°-375°.
• Add about 1/3 cup of gnocchi to the hot oil at a time and cook for 2-3 minutes, flipping occasionally until browned and fragrant. Transfer the gnocchi with a kitchen spider or slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Sprinkle with a little of the salt.
• Continue cooking the remainder of the gnocchi in the same manner, finishing with a light sprinkle of the salt.
• Transfer the hot gnocchi to a serving dish and sprinkle with lemon zest, thyme leaves and crumbled blue cheese. Serve hot.

MASHED POTATOES WITH BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water. Add about 1 1/4 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well.
• Heat cream and butter together in a saucepan over medium-low heat, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in blue cheese until smooth. Add sauce to potatoes and mash together until smooth. Season with remaining salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley.
