1 tablespoon honey |
5 ripe bartlett pears (about 2 1/2 lb. total), rinsed |
8 ounces fresh medjool dates (about 10), pitted and chopped |
Directions:
1. Spoon yogurt into a bowl. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean into yogurt (reserve pod for other uses). Stir in orange juice concentrate and honey until well blended.
2. Peel and core pears; cut lengthwise into 1-inch-thick slices. Arrange pears and dates in bowls and top each with about 1/4 cup vanilla-orange yogurt.
