First off, they were every bit as delicious as they look like they would be. The folks at Real Simple know how to write a recipe, even if it only has 5 ingredients. Which brings me to my next point. It has 5 ingredients, folks. Five. There is a slight art to wrapping the pears in the right amount of prosciutto and spooning out the blue cheese crumbles, (we use goat cheese sometimes, too) but basically you could just mash these 5 ingredients together and end up with something that is the same amount of delicious.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12833\" src=\"http:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/DSC_3703.jpg\" alt=\"Prosciutto Pear Bites | Garlic, My Soul\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/DSC_3703.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/DSC_3703-667x1000.jpg 667w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/DSC_3703-800x1200.jpg 800w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/DSC_3703-500x749.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One word to the wise. Cut your pears into fairly small slices &#8211; maybe 1\/2 inch at the thickest part of your slice &#8211; otherwise these pear bites will be much too large for any human to bite!
