Rice with Pears and Gorgonzola

This recipe is ready in 30 minutes and requires just a few ingredients. So, you won't spend the entire day in the kitchen and yet you'll have a tasteful dish to put on the table. Trust me, the result is spectacular, especially if you're a fan of blue cheese and you like a bit of sweetness in your plate.

Rice with Pears and Gorgonzola

I generally use a Williams pear or an Abate Fetel pear, because of their particular perfume and sweetness, but you can try with any pear you like, as long as it's mature.

Rice with Pears and Gorgonzola

I've chosen a spicy Gorgonzola cheese to make the sauce, but you can use a creamy one if you prefer a lighter flavor.
