Fruit Boats
List of Ingredients
"Michael Jackson loved to eat with his hands so I created lots of finger foods. Salads are a bit of a challenge, but here's one that really works. It's great for parties, or for kids who will love the flavor, shape and taste."
1 pear, peeled, halved and cored
1 peach, peeled, halved and pitted
1/2 ripe banana
1/2 cup fresh raspberries or strawberries
2 Tbsp. cranberry juice
2 heads Belgian endive, cleaned and
separated
4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
2 Tbsp. chopped walnuts
Recipe
Combine all fruits and juice in a food processor or blender and process until pureed. Add more banana if mixture is too thin. Arrange endive on a large platter. Pour fruit
mixture through a funnel into squeeze bottles, then squeeze onto each leaf. Sprinkle with cheese and walnuts.
Makes 8 to 16 servings
