Yield 1 sandwich, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 corn tortillas (6-inch)
2 ounces ham slices
2 kraft 2% american cheese singles
1/4 pear, sliced thin
2 teaspoons maple syrup

Steps:

Tear cheese into a few pieces and place 1 slice on each corn tortilla (I spread it out so that the cheese will melt uniformly).
Place sliced ham on tortilla and place other tortilla on top (like a grilled cheese sandwich).
Slice pear into thin slices.
Place sandwich on George Foreman Grill (or you can use a frying pan or grill). If using a frying pan, I suggest you spray each side of the tortilla's with butter spray.
Place pear slices on grill.
Grill for about 5 minutes, turning pears once.
Remove sandwich and place grilled pears inside sandwich.
Drizzle maple syrup on pears.
Put together sandwich again and enjoy!
