1/2 cup	73g / 2.6oz	Diced pears
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Toasted walnuts - chopped - plus
1 tablespoon	15ml	Chopped toasted walnuts - for garnish
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Maytag blue cheese - plus

		Salt - to taste
		Freshly-ground white pepper - to taste
4		Phyllo dough sheets
1/4 cup	49g / 1.7oz	Butter - melted
1/2 cup	118ml	Pear puree - for sauce

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

As you cut them, squeeze a little lemon juice over pears to prevent browning. Combine pears, walnuts and blue cheese; season to taste with salt and pepper. Lay out phyllo sheet and fold in thirds like a letter, lengthwise; brush surface with melted butter. Mound 1/4 of cheese filling at base of folded phyllo sheet and roll up like an eggroll, pinching ends closed to prevent filling from leaking. Brush top with butter and transfer to a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling.

Bake 12 minutes, until golden and lightly crisped. Serve sprinkled with extra walnuts and blue cheese, with a spoonful of pear puree.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
