Marshmallow Pears
Adapted from Micromeals, Inc.
Servings 6
Ingredients
- 1 29-ounce can pear halves
- 3 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 lemon
- large marshmallows
Instructions
- Reserving the juice, drain the pears and place them cut side up in an 8-inch square microwave-safe dish. Add 6 tablespoons of pear juice to the bottom of the dish.
- Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over pears.
- Zest and peel the lemon, reserving the zest. Cut paper-thin slices of the lemon and place a slice on each pear. Top each pear with a marshmallow.
- Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Keep an eye on the marshmallows while cooking to make sure they don’t explode or burn. Top the marshmallows with lemon zest.
Notes
Editor’s note: I left the lemon peel on when I prepared this dish. Don’t do that.
