Pears with Lemon Curd and Blue Cheese

Makes 30 servings

These pear and cheese bites from Harry & David are light and delicate—perfect for when you're jonesing for a snack but it's not quite time for the main meal.

·   Harry & David Royal Riviera Comice Pear

·   2 ounces Rogue Creamery Blue Cheese

·   3 tablespoons Harry & David Lemon Curd

·   30 Harry & David Water Crackers with Olive Oil and Sea Salt

Cut the blue cheese into cubes, roughly 1/4 of an inch in size. Keep at room temperature.

Cut pear into 12 to 14 even slices, then cut again in half, creating a slice of pear that is thick and approximately 1 inch in length. Discard the ends.

Spread crackers on a tray or flat surface and top each cracker with one pear slice. Add 1/4 teaspoon of lemon curd to the center of the cracker and adhere the blue cheese. The pears turn brown quickly, so add a teaspoon of lemon juice to the pears if a longer tray time is needed.
