Makes approximately 6 servings.
Ingredients
1 head green leaf lettuce, or 1 small box baby greens mix
2 green onions, thinly sliced,
2 Bosc pears, thinly sliced
1 avocado, cut into small cubes
feta cheese (optional)
Dressing
⅓ cup avocado oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons maple syrup
1 ½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon sea salt
2 pinches of black pepper
Candied Pecans
1 cup pecans
3 tablespoons coconut oil
3 tablespoons maple syrup
pinch of sea salt
Directions
In a skillet on medium-low heat add pecans, coconut oil and maple syrup. Toss to coat. Roast for about 5 minutes until slightly roasted. Keep your eyes on the pecans because they can burn very quickly. Remove from pan and let cool.
Wash, dry/spin, tear lettuce into bite size pieces. Add in onion, pear, 1/2 cup pecans and feta. The remaining pecans are for snacking purposes 🙂
Combine all dressing ingredients in a jar and gently shake. Store in fridge until ready to use.
Before serving, add avocado and dressing to the salad. Gently toss until everything is well coated.
Enjoy!
