This blueberry oatmeal is a great way to start the day! I have developed this recipe over the years. It's delicious, light, and great with milk to help cool it down. You can replace the milk with soy milk if desired. You can add the blueberries earlier in the cooking process if you like them hotter and plumper.

Charred Spiced Pears with Smoky Vanilla-Cherry Sauce
Toasted vanilla meets torched ripe pears in these charred spiced pears with smoky vanilla-cherry sauce, a subtly sweet finisher. Use a vanilla bean that's moist and pliable—if it's too dry, it will ignite when you torch it. Use pears at peak ripeness; the juices will help the brown sugar adhere.
