Ok, so, I realize this is not something that most people would just whip up real quick for lunch, but this recipe has been sitting in my 'Recipes to Try' folder
forever. I decided last week that I just needed to make it already. It was very,
very good. The pears and the blue cheese were a nice combination, and the red wine vinegar dressing was outstanding (thanks Lindsay, for that bottle you gave me before you moved!) I think these wraps would be great if you're having someone over for lunch, or if your hosting something in the afternoon, like a bookclub or wives function. Once you have all the ingredients, you can make a bunch of them, then just slice them in half and set them out on a serving platter. I LOVE cranberries, so I added probably double what the recipe called for. While the ingredient list for this may look a little overwhelming, especially for just a wrap, I absolutely recommend trying these. They really weren't difficult to throw together once you have all the stuff. So glad I FINALLY made these!
