Directions
Blue Cheese and Pecan Stuffed Dates, Per Whole Foods’ website, To ease the party rush, make the filling for these dates a few days in advance, keeping in mind that the flavor will get stronger over time For a vegetarian version omit the bacon and saut the onions in olive oil instead of the bacon grease , Every Christmas we stuff dates with peanut butter (chunky or plain) and also some with half a walnut and then roll them in white sugar, Stunning appetiser, perfect balance of sweet and sour! I did not add nuts to the cheese, just popped them on the top as on the picture Needed more dates (depends on the size of them), 32, and matching number of the nuts
