pair of pears

I purchased a local oregon pear while we were on our travels up north.  And I thought it would be fun to mingle prickly pear with pear to see how the flavors combined.  It’s delicious!

Ingredients:

1 C cooked oatmeal
1 pear
1 T prickly pear syrup
1T water

Directions:

Peel and chop pear.  Add prickly pear syrup and water to a saucepan, mix in pear.  Simmer on medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until the pear becomes soft and infused with the sauce.  Add to your oatmeal and enjoy!
