Ronnie's Notes

For grilled cheese lovers, here’s another easy recipe. The texture of ripe, juicy pear is a terrific partner for any of the cheeses recommended; the fruit’s sweet edge is a nice contrast to the sharpness of the cheese and the sweet spices and cayenne pepper play off each other as well. You can make the sandwich on any kind of bread but multigrain’s nutty flavor and uneven texture make it the most interesting.
