Ingredients
  

  • 1-2 Pears (cored and sliced )
  • 10 slices prosciutto
  • 4 ounces blue cheese wedge
  • 1 bunch arugula leaves

Instructions
 

  • Each pear will have about 8-10 pear slices, depending on the thickness of your slices.
  • Cut each prosciutto slice in half lengthwise.
  • Cut a small slice of blue cheese from the block or wedge.
  • Layer a slice of blue cheese and a few arugula leaves on top of a pear slice and carefully wrap with a piece of prosciutto, pressing the prosciutto together on the underside to secure. You can also use toothpicks or skewers to secure.
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve or serve immediately! If serving later, spritz the pears with a bit of lemon juice to prevent them from browning.
