Ingredients:

Serving

4 oz chilled gorgonzola cheese (for strong flavor
1 firm-ripe pear such as bartlett or anjou

1 cup watercress sprigs ( about 1/2 bunch, coarse stems discarded)

Directions:

Preheat broiler.
Cut cheese into thin slices. Halve pear lengthwise and core with a lemon-ball cutter. Slice pear thin crosswise.
On a baking sheet toast both sides of bread about 3 inches from heat until golden. Divide watercress among toasts and cover with overlapping pear slices. Arrange cheese over pear slices and broil sandwiches until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
