Directions

Make Ahead

Prepare cheese and fruit mixtures.

Store separately.

They will keep well, covered and refrigerated, up to 3 days.

Bring cheese and fruit to room temperature before assembling.

Once bites are made, they'll keep well up to 1 hour before serving.

Place cream cheese in a medium bowl.

Using an electric mixer, beat until spreadable.

Scrape down side as needed.

If needed, beat in a little milk, 1 tbsp (15 mL) at a time, until smooth.

Stir in Stilton just until evenly mixed.

Mixture will be lumpy.

Set aside.

Peel apples, then chop into small cubes about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm).

Place in a medium saucepan along with cranberries, port, thyme and sugar.

Bring to a boil, uncovered and stirring occasionally, over high heat.

Then reduce heat to medium.

Gently boil, stirring occasionally, until no liquid remains, 5 to 10 minutes.

Turn into a bowl.

Refrigerate until cool.

Spread Melba rounds with about 1 heaping tsp (7 mL) cheese.

Cover with a spoonful of apple mixture.

Top with a few walnuts and onions.

Stir-Fried Chicken

Although I made a few changes to the recipe (no nuts or bamboo, added bean sprouts and used olive oil) it was delicious. Even my 2 year old son ate it.
