Ingredients

1 package Hillshire Farm(R) Smoked Sausage
8 slices Italian bread
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
4 teaspoons dijon mustard
1/2 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
4 slices Gouda cheese
1 Bartlett Pear ripe, cored and cut into thin slices

Directions

1

Cut sausage into 4 equal lengths, then cut each section lengthwise, but not all the way through, so sausage lies flat. Cook sausage on preheated panini grill or large non-stick skillet until browned and heated through.
2

Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. Turn slices over and spread with Dijon mustard and cranberry sauce.
3

For each sandwich, layer one split sausage section, several pear slices and a slice of cheese. Top with bread slice, buttered side facing up.
4

Grill sandwich on panini grill about 4-5 minutes or until crisp and golden brown.
