Ingredients
1 large, ripe pear, cored and cut into 8 slices
6 ounces prosciutto (or thin ham) cut into 1” strips (see tip below)
8 slices of blue cheese (see tip below)
1 C baby arugula
2 T honey
Stacey Hawkins Tangy Lemon Salt
Directions
Pat pear slices dry using a clean cloth.
Take a pear slice, a few pieces of arugula, and a slice of cheese. Gently wrap them together with a slice of prosciutto and skewer.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Place a small dollop of honey on the serving plate in each space where you will put a pear slice. This will anchor them to the plate.
Arrange all slices as desired and finish with a pinch of Tangy Lemon Salt. Enjoy!
