ASIAN PEAR FRUIT SALAD

This is a beautiful fall salad--easy, clean tasting, and elegant. You could add seeds from 1/2 a vanilla bean, or some cinnamon or cardamom, but totally unnecessary. May garnish with a little mint. Thanks to my friend Karin for this recipe.

This recipe is from my favorite chef, Nathan Lyon. I saw him make this on his program and just had to get the recipe, it looked so good. Prep time = cook time.
