Recipe for NSREMOM

Nsremom asked me for my pear recipe so here it is:

Roasted Pears with Blue Cheese and Walnuts
4 pears, halved and cored
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 bunch fresh thyme
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c. crumbled blue cheese
1/4 c.  walnut pieces

Preheat oven to 375.  Arrange the pears, cut sides up, on a baking sheet.  Drizle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Strip the leaves from the thyme branches and sprinkle over the pears.  Bake for 20 minutes.  Remove baking sheet and spoon a generous amount of crumbled cheese in the center of each pear half, return the pears to the oven and roast until they are tender and the cheese is soft, about 10 more minutes. 

Meanwhile, toast the walnuts in the oven until golden brown, about 5 minutes.  Chop and sprinkle over roasted pears with cheese.  Serve warm.
