PEAR AND AVOCADO SALAD

one of my absolute favorite salad staples. 1, because my kitchen-gifted friend and ex-roommate fed it to us as part of a memorable roommate feast where everyone contributes one dish, and 2, because it is DELICIOUS and NUTRITIOUS and SUPER EASY to make.

do i even need to explain? pick out a soft pear (the softer the better, in my opinion!) cut pear and avocado in 1-to-1 ratio and mix with spring/herb/dark greens. i usually cut more pear/avocado so that i can do greens + one pear piece + one avocado piece per bite—the pear and avocado are just so damn good next to each other! as with all cooking, adjust to your taste accordingly.

original recipe as my roommate made it drizzles basalmic vinegar and olive oil over the whole thing. tried it today with trader joe’s orange champagne vinegar instead—fantastic as well!
