Pear and Pecan Salad

This is an easy one to throw together for a big crowd.  I use this one on Sundays frequently.

Pear and Pecan Salad
by www.trainermomma.com

romaine lettuce, torn
baby spinach
1 or 2 pears, sliced
1-2 tomatoes, diced
3-4 bunches of green onions
1 handful of Craisins
1 handful of pecans, roasted
4-5 oz of goat cheese, crumbled
balsamic vinegar
olive oil

Get a very large salad bowl and just start throwing all the goodies in the bowl.  Add as many ingredients as suits your fancy.  Remember, however, to go easy on the high calorie foods:  Craisins, pecans and goat cheese.

Mix with salad tongs.  When you load up your plate, drizzle with a bit of balsamic vinegar and about a tablespoon of olive oil.

YUM!
