BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND PEAR BRUNCH SANDWICHES



Blue Cheese, Bacon and Pear Brunch Sandwiches image

The original idea for this came from a friend. I varied the type of cheese and bread, and added a finishing step to create these tasty little sandwiches. I used low-sodium bacon, however, I think any bacon would work well. Served with a side salad of mixed greens and fresh berries, this makes a great brunch or light supper sandwich.
