Vegetarian, Low-Fat Poached Pears

 

4 pears, preferably Bosc

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

1 cup cranapple juice

 

Halve, peel, and core the pears. Sprinkle freshly cut pears with lemon juice

to prevent browning. Place in microwave-safe dish and cover with cranapple

juice. Cover and cook on high 6 - 8 minutes or until pears are fork tender.

(Check the pears after 6 minutes; the fresher the pears, the longer they'll

take to cook.) Spoon juice over pears, cover, and let stand 30 minutes or

refrigerate overnight.

Makes 8 pear halves.
