Ingredients

1 baguette, thinly sliced on an angle

1 pear, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced

Lemon wedge

3/4 pound Roquefort, crumbled

1 cup walnut pieces

Directions

  1. Preheat the broiler.
  2. Arrange 12 slices of baguette on the broiler pan in a single layer. Toast bread lightly on each side under broiler. Remove broiler pan from broiler. Spread out sliced pears on cutting surface and squeeze the juice of a wedge of lemon over the slices to keep them from browning. Place a slice of pear on each toast and top with Roquefort crumbles and walnut pieces. Return pan to broiler 6 inches from heat source and broil toasts 2 or 3 minutes to melt cheese and toast walnuts. Transfer to a plate and start snacking!

Thought this was great. Easy and tasty. I made a few modifications to the recipe, though. First, I brushed all the baguette slices with EVOO before toasting to add an additional touch of rich sweetness. I also made half of mine with stilton (rather than the sharper Roquefort) and half with chevre. Both were great compliments with the pear and toasted walnuts.<br /><br />This'll surely be one the menu again sometime.
