serves ten


2 strip of bacon (2 oz.)

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped

Chop bacon and cook in a frying pan (not nonstick) over high heat until crisp, about 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel. Pulse in a food processor to make fine crumbs; put in serving bowl. In another bowl, mix yogurt, gorgonzola cheese, 1/2 teaspoon rosemary and pepper. Sprinkle with an additional 1/2 teaspoon chopped rosemary. Pile endive leaves in a wide bowl; serve with dip and bacon dust.
