Ingredients

  • 2 firm but ripe Red Anjou Pears peeled, halved lengthwise, and cored
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 3 tbsp apple cider
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 6 ounces spring mix salad
  • 1/4 cup walnuts toast

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and place your oven rack in the middle of the oven.
  • In a small bowl whisk together your honey and apple cider until it is thoroughly combined. On a lined baking sheet place your pears cut side up. Drizzle pears with 1/2 of the honey and apple cider sauce and place in the oven to roast for 15 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and spoon the crumbled blue cheese in equal portions into the core of each pear. Drizzle the remaining honey and apple cider sauce onto the pears.
  • Return to the oven to continue roasting for another 10 minutes. You want the pears to be fork tender and the blue cheese melted and golden brown. Serve along side your spring salad mix and toasted walnuts.
