Instructions

  1. Remove pear halves from can, taking care to drain away as much liquid from pears as possible. Place pears onto a serving platter on top of lettuce leaves (if using) or straight onto the platter.
  2. Top each pear half with about a teaspoon of mayonnaise, then add a little cheddar cheese to the top of the mayonnaise, and top each with a maraschino cherry.
  3. Serve cold.

Notes

  • Make Ahead Instructions
  • To make ahead. Prepare the pear salad without adding the cherry to the top and wrap well with plastic wrap or place in an airtight container. Refrigerate up to 24 hours. Add the cherries right before serving.
