Instructions

Prepare the ingredients prior to building the salad. Wash and thinly slice pears, removing the stems. Slice or finely dice the red onion how you prefer it. Chop dates into small, bite-sized pieces, and if needed, remove the seeds from the pomegranate.
In a salad bowl, add the lettuce/spring mix blend to the bottoms. Then layer each of the remaining salad ingredients on top: diced red onion, pecans, dates, pomegranate seeds, dried cranberries, and fresh pears. Optional: add your favorite cheese to the salad.
Drizzle Pear Vinaigrette on salad and toss together. Enjoy!

Notes

I didn’t add cheese, but a honey goat cheese or a gorgonzola crumble would be fabulous paired on this salad!
