Not everyone likes pie during the holidays, so why not make Baked Pears with Cranberries and Walnuts? If you don't have pomegranate juice, use cranberry juice, red wine or apple cider instead. Enjoy with a scoop of low fat frozen yogurt or whipped topping sprinkled with a little cinnamon or nutmeg.
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:

* 3 ripe but firm pears, peeled, cored and quartered
* 1/3 cup pomegranate juice
* 1/2 cup dried cranberries
* 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place quartered pears in a baking dish. Drizzle pomegranate juice over pears. Sprinkle cranberries and walnuts over the top. Bake for 20 minutes, or until pears are tender. Serve with juices and fat-free or low fat frozen vanilla yogurt.

Sounds good, but I'm not a fan of baked fruits like apples and pears. I like them cold and juicy.

Man I love to cook. Growing up my mother own a catering company ( very small) but I took a liking to it from watching her. She went to culinary school. Later when I got in to high school she went back to school and became a accountant. But she still cooks for the family.mmmmmmgood
