This recipe is so easy and so delicious! It's a combination most
wouldn't think of but the pear, blue cheese and spinach work
perfectly together.

2 turkey breast tenderloins (1 to 1-1/4 lb)
1 tsp dried sage, crushed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbsp butter
1 6-oz pkg fresh baby spinach
1 large pear, cored and thinly sliced
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese

1. Horizontally split tenderloins to make four 1/2-inch-thick steaks.
Rub turkey with sage; sprinkle with salt and pepper. In extra-large
skillet cook steaks in 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat
14 to 16 minutes or until no longer pink (170 degrees F), turning once.
(Reduce heat to medium if turkey browns too quickly.) Remove from
skillet. Add spinach to skillet. Cook and stir until just wilted.

2. Meanwhile, in small skillet cook pear slices in remaining
1 tablespoon butter over medium to medium-high heat, stirring
occasionally for 5 minutes or until tender and lightly browned.

3. Serve steaks with spinach and pears. Top with blue cheese.
