This classic Southern Pear Salad recipe is an old-fashioned side dish found at many family gatherings! It’s a bright and simple favorite with juicy pears and cheddar cheese, topped with cherries!
This easy pear salad recipe is always a favorite for Sunday suppers and holiday meals, especially Easter, Memorial Day, and throughout the summer. It’s been served at southern family suppers and potlucks for as long as I can remember. Don’t save it for a holiday – it is delicious any time of the year.
This pear salad recipe isn’t the type of salad recipe that many expect. The only time you’ll find lettuce involved in this salad is if you decide to add a bed of large lettuce leaves to the platter to nestle your pear salad on. But this no-cook side dish recipe is always a favorite!
