Endive, Pear and Walnut Salad


Think fall, leaves falling and fresh pears. Whole Foods Market created an excellent salad that we pair with Chicken/Mango sausages and Naan bread for a fantastic light dinner.

1/4 cup toasted walnut oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
Salt to taste
8 cups bite-size pieces leafy green lettuce
2 Belgian endives, trimmed and thinly sliced
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (Valpreso is the best)
1 large Bosc pear, cored and thinly sliced
1/2 cup toasted walnuts
Black pepper to taste

Put oil, lemon juice, vinegar, honey and salt into a large bowl and whisk together to make a dressing. Add lettuce, endive and cheese and toss gently to coat. Top with pears, walnuts and pepper and serve.
