The original idea for this came from a friend. I varied the type of cheese and bread, and added a finishing step to create these tasty little sandwiches. I used low-sodium bacon, however, I think any bacon would work well. Served with a side salad of mixed greens and fresh berries, this makes a great brunch or light supper sandwich.
Ingredients
- 1 Bosc pear, thinly sliced
- 1 ½ cups apple juice
- 6 slices bacon
- 2 rosemary focaccia bread, or other square rolls, split
- 6 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
Directions
Step 1
Place the pear slices in a skillet, and pour in the apple juice. Cook over medium heat until the pears are soft, about 5 minutes. Drain pears and reserve; discard juice.
Step 2
Meanwhile, place the bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
Step 3
Preheat the oven broiler.
Step 4
Place the focaccia bread slices on a baking sheet. Divide the pear slices evenly among the bread, and top evenly with the bacon, and then with the blue cheese.
Step 5
Broil the sandwiches in the preheated broiler until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
