Provolone Pear Panini

I experimented the last week and came up with this Panini.

2 slices raisin bread
2 slices provolone cheese
2 very thin slices ham lunchmeat
About 1/2 to 1/3 of a pear
2-3 tsp. finely chopped pecans

Preheat a George Foreman grill. Halve, core, and slice a pear (about 1/4” thick). Once the grill is heated, grill three slices for 2-3 minutes until slightly soft, turning once. Meanwhile, spritz olive oil cooking spray on the bread (on the sides that will be the outside of the sandwich).

Layer one slice cheese, pecans, grilled pears, the other slice of cheese, and the ham between the two slices of bread. Grill for 3 minutes or until the bread is browned and the cheese is melty, flipping once if the grill looks like it’s squeezing the filling out of the sandwich. Cut in half and enjoy!
