Ingredients

1 container (10 oz) quince paste
6 oz Manchego or Parmesan cheese
2 large pears
Grated peel from 4 lemons (about 3 tablespoons)

Directions

1

Remove quince paste from container. Cut paste crosswise into 12 equal slices; cut each slice diagonally in half for total of 24 slices.
2

Cut cheese into 24 equal slices.
3

Cut each pear in half lengthwise and remove core. Cut each half into 6 equal wedges for total of 24 wedges.
4

To serve, place pear wedges on serving plate; top each wedge with cheese slice and quince paste slice. Sprinkle with lemon peel.

Quince is a fruit that tastes like a cross between an apple and a pear. It usually comes in cans or plastic tubs. Often you can find it near the cheese section or in the deli department of your grocery store.
Next time, for a change of flavor, use apple slices instead of the pear slices.
