I found I had both ginger snaps and fresh pears on hand, so I made
this--and liked it a lot. Hope you do, too.

*Peel and slice pears, put them in the bottom of an oven-proof dish.

*"Lots" of ginger snaps. Zap them in the food processer--or, if you
don't have one, put them in a bag and pound them. Melt some butter and
toss the ginger snap crumbs in the butter. Spread over the pears.
Put in a moderate oven until the butter bubbles up and the crumbs
are getting crispy.

Enjoy. You can use ice cream on top, if you like.

Cheers,
Nancree
