Grilled Stuffed Apples

Nothing says summer like grilling out!  I've got a slew of grilling recipes to share with you, and up first is this delicious stuffed apple recipe.

For each apple, you will need:

• 1 apple (duh!)
• 1/2 small (tiny, really) pear
• 1 ounce blue cheese crumbles
• 1 tablespoon walnut pieces

For equipment, have a sharp knife, a melon baller, and (of course) a grill.

First, cut a small slice off the base of your apple so that it sits level and sturdy.

Then, use your melon baller to scoop out and hollow the apple, stopping before you scoop all the way through.  Discard the pieces with the core, but save the rest for stuffing.

Finely chop the pear and apple pieces and combine in a bowl with the walnuts and half of the blue cheese.

Stuff your apple, topping it with the remaining blue cheese.

Then, place your apples on the grill, using indirect heat (that means to the side of the coals) and a piece of foil underneath.

Let the apples grill until the tops are golden brown, about 20 minutes, rotating after about 10 minutes.

Serve them up and enjoy immediately!  They are the perfect side to serve with pork, or any other grilled meats.  Yum!
