    Ingredients

    2 Slices of Apple Cinnamon Bread or Onion Ciabatta
    1 tbsp Light Mayonnaise
    1 tsp Butter
    4 Slices of Rare Roast Beef
    1 Bosc Pear or Red Anjou Pear
    4 oz Fontina Cheese

    Directions

    Slice the pears. They should be fairly thin.

    In a dry non-stick pan, cook the pears oven medium high heat until the sugars begin to caramelize and the pears begin to brown. Remove from pan.

    In a non-stick pan, add the butter and melt it over medium heat.

    Use half a TBSP of light mayonnaise on one side of one of the slices of bread. Place mayonnaise side down in pan. Layer 2 oz fontina cheese, then 2-3 slices of pear, the roast beef, and 2 more oz of fontina cheese on the bread in the pan. Turn the heat down, and cover for 2 minutes, making sure not to burn the bread.

    Add mayonnaise to the other side of the bread, and place it on top of the sandwich. Using a spatula, carefully flip the grilled cheese over, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the other slice of bread has browned.

    Carefully remove grilled cheese from the pan using a spatula. Now enjoy your grilled cheese!
