If asked to name three foods that could be combined and result in a flavorful bite to eat, a person might take a long while before landing on pears, bacon and Gorgonzola cheese. But that unlikely trio of ingredients can make for a delicious and easily crafted finished product. Those emboldened to give this unique combination a chance can try “Bacon-Wrapped Pears Stuffed With Gorgonzola”
Bacon-Wrapped
4 pears, halved lengthways and cored
4
1. Heat the oven to 325 F. 2. Drizzle the cut side of the pears with lemon juice and place a piece of cheese on four halves.
3. Put the pears back together and wrap in a slice of bacon. Place the pears in a baking dish and top with the butter. Drizzle with the honey and bake for around 20 minutes until golden brown. Baste occasionally with the melted butter.
