Pear and Baby Green Salad
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 tsp. sugar
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
Salt and Pepper to taste
3 Bartlett pears, cored and thinly sliced
6 cups baby greens
1 avocado, peeled and diced
Combine olive oil, lemon juice, sugar, basil and salt and pepper in a cruet and shake well. Arrange pears and baby greens in a large bowl. Just before serving pour dressing over greens and toss. Garnish with diced avocado before serving.
The Skinny: The avocado has some fat but really adds to the taste and presentation for this dish. You decide...to avocado or not to avocado.
