Savory Gorgonzola Bread Pudding image

Maybe it's because meat is so expensive, but I find cooks get very conservative when it comes to choosing accompaniments for a steak dinner. No one ever got in trouble serving a baked potato, but sometimes you have to take a chance.

I thought this bread pudding was just okay. The gorgonzola flavor was a bit too subtle for my taste, and the dish overall was a bit bland. I probably wouldn't make it again.

This bread pudding was a bit of a let down. The gorgonzola flavor was too strong and overpowering, and it didn't really go well with the other flavors in the dish. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This bread pudding was easy to make and turned out great! The gorgonzola added a nice tanginess that balanced out the sweetness of the bread and fruit. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a huge fan of bread pudding, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The gorgonzola added a nice savory flavor, and the bread and fruit were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make this again if I was in the mood for bread pudding.

This bread pudding was a disappointment. The gorgonzola flavor was too strong and overpowering, and it masked the other flavors in the dish. I would not recommend this recipe.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of gorgonzola. But I'm so glad I did! The gorgonzola flavor was not overpowering at all, and it actually added a really nice savory note to the dish. I'll definitely be making this aga

I'm not usually a fan of bread pudding, but this recipe changed my mind. The gorgonzola added a richness and depth of flavor that made it irresistible. I loved the contrast between the soft, custard-like center and the crispy, buttery top.
