FREE 7-DAY HEALTHY MEAL PLAN (September 16-22)
I love pears. They are so versatile and perfect for desserts or fall salads! My Roasted Pears with Walnuts and Honey is made with just 4 ingredients (and can be eaten for breakfast too!) And I love Royal Riviera, Bosc, and Anjou for their great texture and flavor. Check out this ripeness chart to find out which pears are in season near you!
This kale and butternut squash salad with pears and almonds is a great fall treat, but if you’re looking for something warmer, try this stir-fry pork and pears with spicy mustard greens!
