SPINACH SALAD WITH PEARS & CANDIED PECANS
A tasty combination of pears, blue cheese and spinach make this salad a standout. The sugared pecans add a nice crunch and a bit of sweetness. If you like poppy seeds, feel free to add some to the vinaigrette.-Tamara Stimpson, Zephyr, Ontario

SAUTEED PEAR & SPINACH SALAD
This salad is amazing and I have made the dressing just to use for other recipes! Usually salads are big in the summer but with the pears being sauteed and the pecan nuts added to this one - its perfect for winter too!

SAUTEED PEAR SALAD
This crispy, sweet salad is so quick and easy to make for a light summer dish. This salad would also be delicious using apples too. To add a bit more crunch, I also added a few toasted pecans. I found this recipe in a Good Housekeeping magazine.

SPINACH AND PEAR SALAD
From Cooking Light (October 2001). I love pears, and they are wonderful in salads. Some feta and/or some nuts (pecans, walnuts) would also be good in this.

SPINACH-PEAR SALAD
I love spinach, and have developed quite a fondness for pears lately. This salad was posted by Bonnie Lloyd in the cookbook "June Fete Fare". Cooking time is the time it takes to toast the pecan halves.
