Pear-Camembert Grilled Cheese
Pear-Camembert Grilled Cheese is a gourmet take on the classic grilled cheese sandwich, featuring creamy Camembert, sweet pear slices, and optional prosciutto, all between slices of French baguette. This delightful combination is enhanced with fresh arugula and a touch of black pepper.

- ½ French baguette , sliced open faced
- 2 tbsps salted butter
- 4 oz Camembert
- 1 pear , thinly sliced
- 2 slices prosciutto , optional
