One of my goals for the new year was to waste less food by using up what I have. I had two ripe pears that had been meant for a salad, and some pear paste leftover from the holidays. So I got a box of cake mix and doctored it up using what I had. Turned out flavorful, rich, and moist.

Steps:
- 1. Stir dry spices into cake mix. Peel and chop pears. Set aside.
- 2. Preheat oven to 350, and spray cake pan generously with Baker's Joy.
- 3. Add pear paste, ginger paste, oil, water and eggs to mix. Beat until combined. Gently stir in pears.

- 6. Add sugar and vanilla. Whisk vigorously until combined. Pour over cake. Enjoy!
