Grilled Pear And Blue Cheese Sandwich - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup blue cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup havarti cheese, shredded
8 slices sourdough bread (or other good-quality bread)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon unsalted butter, softened
2 pears, ripe, cored, thinly sliced
salad greens, such as arugula (optional)

Preparation

Toss cheeses together in a small bowl; set aside.
Place bread slices on a work surface.
Spread 1 teaspoon of the butter on each of 4 bread slices; set aside.
Arrange pear slices evenly on the unbuttered slices.
Top with the cheese; top with the greens, then the buttered slice of bread.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons of the butter in a skillet over medium heat, or prepare a panini pan.
Add sandwiches to pan; heat, turning once, pressing with a spatula to flatten, until cheese melts and bread browns, about 3 minutes per side.
