Prosciutto Pear Sandwich Recipe

This Prosciutto Pear Sandwich is easy to make and loaded with delicious flavors and textures.

Move over cheddar and white bread, there’s a sandwich in the kitchen. Sweet pear, salty prosciutto come together for one of the best sandwich combinations.

I have a confession, I’m not a sandwich person.

I attribute it to the fact that my mom worked away from home when I was growing up and I probably lived on sandwiches–my husband and I joke that if it isn’t a hot meal, I don’t consider it “good”.

That’s not really true.

I just don’t like sandwiches as much as my husband.

He LOVES sandwiches.

I gasp when we go out to eat and he orders a sandwich.

This pear and prosciutto sandwich is one we both can agree on.

Mix and match flavors for this amazing sandwich.*
