The Prosciutto, Pear, and Blue Cheese sandwich recipe as found in the October issue of Cooking Light is FABULOUS. I have probably made this sandwich five times in the last couple weeks. It is fast and easy and so delicious (and only 324 calories). I LOVE all the flavors together. So here you go - a new recipe to add to your collection. Give it a try!
