Arrange assorted cheeses on a shallow dish plate. Freeze them covered in cling film. If you are serving soup and everyone is so hungry that you need extra food FAST. Take out dish of frozen cheeses and microwave for a couple of minutes on highest setting. They melt together not so much that they get mixed up-. (ok I only meant to defrost- but the result was impressively delicious!)
