1/2 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese

1/2 cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese

2 tablespoons pine nutes, toasted in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden, about 3 minutes.

1 garlic clove, pressed

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 loaf coarse-textured Italian or French bread

About 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Preheat the grill with all the burners on high for 10 minutes and the lid down.

While the grill is preheating, combine the cheeses, pine nuts, garlic and pepper in a small bowl, toss lightly with a fork, and let stand at room temperature until needed.

Cut the bread into 1/2 inch thick slices and lightly brush both sides of each slice with the olive oil.

Once the grill is hot, turn all the burners to low. Place the bread on the grill and toast on one side only, with the lid down. Watch closely because the toasting will take only a minute. Turn the bread and top each with the cheese mixture, pressing down on it slightly with a fork. Close the lid and bake the toasts for a few minutes, until the cheese mixture has melted.

Serve the toasts hot off the grill.

Serves 6 to 8
