- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- 2 tablespoons honey
- A pinch of black pepper (optional)

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Prepare the Pears: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Halve the pears and use a spoon to carefully remove the cores. Arrange the pear halves cut side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2. Bake the Pears: Place the pears in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender but still hold their shape.
3. Assemble the Dish: Take the pears out of the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Then, sprinkle each pear half evenly with the crumbled blue cheese and chopped walnuts.
4. Add the Final Touches: Drizzle honey over each pear half, ensuring to cover the layers of cheese and walnuts.
5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley and a dash of black pepper over the pears if using. Serve the dish warm or at room temperature.
