Blue Cheese And Pear Bruschetta

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Made these over the weekend and found then quite tasty. I changed a couple things. I doubled the amount of blue cheese and used only one pear. used cream cheese instead of mascarpone because the latter is so expensive. Also, I changed the order of directions a bit because I wanted the cheese to be melted and I didn't want the bread to be too crunchy. I spread the baguette slice with the cream cheese and topped it with the pear/blue mixture before putting it in the oven, and then simply warmed it up until the cheese melted. Finally, I think next time I would use basil instead of parsley. I think basil would be better suited to the other flavors in this dish.
