Pear and Brie Gourmet Grilled Cheese

Fruit and cheese is a classic combination, but most people limit themselves to apples and cheddar. We've paired succulent Royal Riviera Pears with creamy Brie cheese and fig butter to create a superb grilled cheese recipe that will satisfy your tastebuds. It's comfort food turned into a culinary delight for the health-conscious.

Have you ever had baked Brie? If not, it's a dish that is extremely decadent and delicious! And if you have, then you'll understand why this grilled cheese sandwich works. We love the salty-sweet combination of ripe pears and Brie. Adding a touch of fig butter, a fruit spread not to be confused with butter, to this grilled cheese sandwich enhances the sweetness of the pears and makes it a real adult treat. Plus, it's slightly lower in calories than traditional grilled cheese. It makes for a gourmet lunch or dinner, while still being that comforting grilled cheese we all know and love. This recipe is definitely a must-try!
