Bosco pears cook the best then the green pears. Stay away from the red pears they turn to mush
The nutrition facts are wrong. Because they say no sugar but your putting brown sugar on pears and the vanilla yogurt has sugar in it. Don't walk away when broiling.
Simple delicious and impressive to l - 2/9/16

Going to try this it sounds delicious, but yes the picture does not match. So I did a google search of images, and honestly could not find anything even close to the description of the recipe. I'm thinking it's hard to find a stock photo online, not everyone can upload an actual photo of the dish. - 6/19/13

I agree with everyone about the picture and to the one that said she didn`t think SP ever read the comments, well I know they read one of mine....I said the recipe was nasty and they deleted it!....SP is just too busy thinking of ways to get more ads on their space to care about pictures and recipes - 11/12/12
