Cinnamon Pears with Wild Blueberries

This is a fabulous, low-fat, too-easy-to-be-true dessert.

Ingredients:
1 can cinnamon-flavored pear halves
Wild blueberries

Directions:
Place one or two pear halves in a single-serving, microwave-safe dish (or just put them all in a single layer into one bigger dish). Fill center of each pear half with blueberries, mounding slightly. Spoon additional berries around pears as desired. Pour pear juice from can over the pears and berries. Microwave for about 2 - 5 minutes depending on the microwave and whether you use one dish or individual dishes. (I cook one serving at a time about 2 1/2 minutes when I use frozen berries but I have a low watt oven.)

Serve hot. Top with whipped cream if desired.

If you want, add just a little butter (real butter) to the top of the blueberries before microwaving. You decadent thing, you.
