6 clementines
1/2 250-g pkg spreadable cream cheese, at room temperature
2 to 3 tsp milk
1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola or other blue cheese
12 small, thin slices toasted walnut bread, or 12 melba toasts
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts, optional
Finely grate 1 tsp (5 mL) peel from a clementine. Place in a medium bowl along with cream cheese. Add 2 tsp (10 mL) milk. Beat mixture with a wooden spoon. Crumble in gorgonzola and stir until evenly mixed. Mixture will be lumpy. If too thick for spreading, stir in another 1 tsp of milk.
Up to 1 hour before serving, peel and segment clementines. Thickly spread toasts with cheese mixture. Top each with clementine segments. Sprinkle with walnuts.
