Sliced Pear with Goats Cheese

Ingredients:

• one large log of goats cheese
• 6 pears
• 4 green onions
• half a cup of chopped European parsley
• one quarter of a cup of chopped basil
• half a cup of sautéed diced pancetta
• one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
• half a cup of pomegranate seeds
• sea salt and cracked black pepper

Steps:

In a wide flat bowl, I squeezed one lemon and rolled in a log of goats cheese into the juice. I the added salt and pepper and kneaded the goats cheese into the accumulating flavors. I then added extra virgin olive oil, thinly sliced green onions, chopped basil and chopped parsley.

I sliced the pears like thick wafers. I smeared the goats cheese on the pear as one would peanut butter onto a sandwich. I then  sprinkled with pancetta and on a separate batch I sprinkled pomegranate seeds (for the vegetarian). Voila lean deliciousness.
