Pear with Honey & Pecans

This recipe is a study in contradiction. It's from Martha Stewart and it's totally simple. However, for the first and probably only time, I made it more complicated than Martha ... I thought the pecans needed toasting first. But that's just me.

Something magical happens when honey hits a juicy, ripe pear - a whole new flavor that is sooo good. And even if you toast the pecans - it's very easy.

And BTW, the photo is a ridiculous amount of nuts, the finished result is actually about half that.

Ingredients
1 red or green Bartlett pear
1/4 cup chopped pecans
2 tablespoons honey

Directions
1.  Cut pear in half lengthwise and scoop out seeds with a melon baller or spoon.
2.  In a small bowl, mix together chopped nuts and honey. Mound on the pear halves.
