Pear Salad

Pear Salad

Juicy, ripe pears, toasted walnuts, feta, and dried cranberries star in this Pear Salad recipe, all tied together with a zippy maple vinaigrette. It’s a gorgeous, fresh autumn salad that’s perfect for holiday get togethers or as a side for a fall or winter dinner.

Why You’ll Love This Simple Pear Salad Recipe

A Green Salad for Fall and Winter. We all need some backpocket side salads. This pear salad is light enough that you can use it to round out a meal, but add sliced Air Fryer Chicken Breast and you’ve got yourself a healthy main dish salad. It’s also fabulous enough to bring to a holiday get together or dinner party.

The Perfect Balance of Flavors. We’ve got sweet, savory, nutty, tangy, salty, and tart in this pear salad recipe, with every flavor in perfect harmony with the rest.

Easy to Make. Salads always seem like they’ll be simple, but washing and cutting all those veggies can be a real slog. This salad using pears, however, is incredibly easy to put together because the only produce you need to prep is the fresh pear.

Ingredients:
For the Salad
  • ½ cup raw pecans or walnuts
  • 1 large ripe Bartlett or Anjou pear cored and thinly sliced
  • 5 ounces spring mix or greens of choice
  • ½ cup crumbled feta about 2 ounces
  • ⅓ cup dried cranberries

For the Dressing
  • 1 small shallot minced
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Total Time:
20 minutes
