    Thank you for sharing the difference between Crostini and Bruschetta! Sometimes I find the Bruschetta is difficult to take a bite from, so if I can just take one big bite of a crostini I would be happy! I’m not a blue cheese fan, but every other soft cheese works for me…probably goat cheese or brie for this recipe. I love how you have combined all these flavors…can’t wait to try this! Thanks!

      Hi there, Millican! My pleasure! And, yes, goat cheese or brie would be great choices here!

    Another crostini winner! And honestly, this sounds like the best one yet…although each and every one sounds quite tempting. The blue cheese + honey here is the winner, though…and I love the pecan addition. Do you deliver? ๐Ÿ™‚
