So many beloved foods are stuffed, wrapped or rolled up, aren’t they? Think ravioli, sandwiches, tacos, calzones, dumplings, wontons, corndogs, empanadas, samosas, spring rolls, burritos…the list is endless!
Today our Sunday Supper cooks are celebrating things that are stuffed, rolled and wrapped, and do we ever we have a delectable array of recipes to entice you.
To the party I have brought my new favorite appetizer – Endive Stuffed with Blue Cheese, Walnuts and Honey. The slightly bitter endive spears provide a secure enclosure for the tangy cheese and crunchy nuts and the whole thing is lightly sweetened with a drizzle of honey.
It’s sublime! Put endive on your shopping list right now.
Recipe: Endive Stuffed with Blue Cheese, Walnuts and Honey
Summary: Endive leaves are the perfect receptacle into which blue cheese, walnuts and honey are stuffed, making a tangy-sweet-crunchy appetizer.
Ingredients
- 3-5 heads fresh endive
- Crumbled blue cheese
- Toasted walnuts, broken in half
- Honey
Instructions
- Slice root end off endive and separate leaves into individual spears. Rinse and dry well.
- Arrange endive spears/leaves on a serving platter, and into each spear put some blue cheese crumbles (stuff the leaves to suit yourself), a few walnut pieces, and finish with a slight drizzle of honey.
- Serve with a flourish (maybe put a towel over your arm like a maitre‘d because you have earned the right to be fancy like that).
- Allow at least 5-6 spears per person. (You could aim modestly and allow 2 spears per person, but you would run out and feel badly about it. This happened to me at a party so I know firsthand.)

Endive Stuffed with Blue Cheese, Walnuts and Honey, awaiting guests at the party!
Welcome to my kitchen, where the oven is always on, and the fridge is packed with delectables! 
Dorothy, what a great appetizer! I must admit, I’m not a fan of blue cheese but I can easily swap it with another. Everything else here sounds fabulous, flavourful and totally delicious.
Nancy,
Oh sure, you can change out the cheese at will!
Endive is so pretty – I don’t understand why there are not more delicious dishes like yours using it
Cathy,
Me either! I think we forget about it and overlook it.
You know I love endive but don’t eat it that often at all. For some reason I could never think of recipes to use it with. This sounds like a perfect idea.
Laura,
Endive is tricky that way. It’s not so obvious sometimes!
What a great appetizer idea!
Thanks, Julie!
I love tasty and simply appetizers. Who wants to slave over a stove when you are having company? Love these!!
Bobbi,
You are exactly right!
I’m a huge blue cheese fan! I’ll bet these are delicious with that drizzle of honey and those crunchy walnuts! I MUST make these
Renee,
Plus, they could not be easier to make!
What a great combination, Dorothy! I love the endive “boats” filled with goodness. They make beautiful appetizers.
Stacy,
Yeah, they ARE little boats!
The color of the endive is gorgeous! Blue cheese and endive… great combination!
Shaina,
It’s fun to get both the red and green endive on the same plate, if you can.
Your red endives are gorgeous! Where on earth did you find those? I’ve only seen green ones at my grocery store.
Oh, and the recipe sounds fantastic! I love using endive as little boats.
Julie,
In California, we are spoiled by all the produce available to us. Actually, all the endive available in the U.S. comes from California Endive
Don’t miss this easy and delish appetizer!!
I can understand why this is your favorite appetizer. It is easy (real bonus in my book) and looks beautiful. The endive really hold those delicious bits of blue cheese, walnuts and honey perfectly.
Desserts,
Absolutely right!
That endive is just gorgeous! Love the color and the filling is perfect!
Susan,
Thank you! It is so pretty in person, too!
This looks like a delicious and refreshing appetizer.
Heather,
Easy to eat!
Yes! tt is sublime and one of my favorite appetizers.
Renee,
It is so elegant, isn’t it?
These sound amazing – love the combination of honey and blue cheese!
Melanie,
Tangy and sweet and crunchy…cannot beat that combo!
Oh I love the addition of honey!!! Perfect and easy appetizer!!
Wimpy,
Just a tiny drizzle is all you need!
These would be a lovely addition to any tray of appetizers! So pretty!
Liz,
You’re right, they are! And they offer a bit of veg, too.
Great idea for entertaining! These look fabulous and may appear at my Easter dinner next week.
Christy,
Quite elegant and perfect for Easter!
These are my favorite, never tried the honey but wow, would that be good. Love them!!
Tara,
Oh yes, just a tiny drizzle. They don’t need to swim in honey. Just a drip.
You had me at blue cheese! I love this I want make some right now! Yummy!
Seduction,
With a name like yours, oh YES, these are right up your alley!
These are gorgeous!

Walnuts, blue cheese & honey — simply delicious! Beautiful picture 2!

For Easter, maybe?
Your endive are cradling extremely yummy contents, Dorothy. Great idea for an elegant or casual party appetizer. Bravo!
Kim/Ninja,
Thanks! Cradling…I like that description.
Beautiful! And so simple! You’ve just given me my appetizer offering for this Wednesday’s wine tasting party.
Lea Ann,
Oh yes, wine party and these….that’s all you need!
I love this! And I also love how convenient it is to serve at parties!
Manu,
Exactly right!
I love that you brought this appetizer to the party and can’t wait to try this recipe! YUM.
