what's cooking wednesday - grilled cheesy appetizer

We had friends coming over for a evening of conversation and visiting and minutes before they walked in the door I remembered seeing this recipe in the latest What's Cooking Magazine. I'm going to apologize in advance for the picture. I snapped a quick one with my cell phone just as I brought it in.



Grilled Cheesy Appetizer

1 brick cream cheese
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
grated mozzarella
Greek feta and oregano salad dressing

Preheat your barbecue to medium high heat. Make a little tray out of tinfoil. I used double thickness and rolled the sides up to keep things from rolling off. Place the brick of cream cheese in the center. Top with onion, tomato, a good handful of mozzarella and a fairly generous drizzle of salad dressing. Place your tinfoil tray on the barbecue and leave it until the cheese is melted and the cream cheese has softened. Serve with crackers.

This was fantastic. I threw it together in minutes and it didn't require me to babysit the grill while it was cooking. This recipe is only limited by your imagination. You easily change the toppings or the dressing or the cheese. It was a huge hit and I can see making this lots over the summer.




What is What's Cooking Wednesday and how can I play?

What's cooking Wednesday was born out of a desire to get out of that what's for dinner rut. Playing is easy, on Wednesday post a recipe that has been tried and tested by you and then pop over here and add your name to the Mr. Linky. When entering your name also add the name of the recipe in brackets and make sure you link to your What's Cooking Wednesday post and not just your blog's front page.

*All front page links will be deleted!*
*Posts that aren't linked back will be deleted*
*Posts that don't include some sort of a recipe will be deleted*

Don't make me be a jerk. And don't forget to link back here, the home of What's Cooking Wednesday.

So for example I would write Shan (Speedy Chicken Stir Fry) in the name section. For the URL section I would post this: http://shanrev.blogspot.com/2007/10/whats-cooking-wednesday-speedy-chicken.html

I'll let you in on a little secret, my WCW recipes are almost never made on a Wednesday. So feel free to cook and photograph whenever you have time and join us posting on Wednesday
