Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less. Ingredients:
4 ounces chilled gorgonzola cheese (for strong flavor) or 6 ounces chilled saga blue cheese (for milder flavor) |
1 firm-ripe pear such as bartlett or anjou |
four 1/2-inch-thick slices whole-grain bread |
1 cup watercress sprigs (about 1/2 bunch, coarse stems discarded) |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler.
2. Cut cheese into thin slices. Halve pear lengthwise and core with a lemon-ball cutter. Slice pear thin crosswise.
3. 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.
