  • 4 ounces feta cheese crumbles
  • 1/2 cup pecans, halved

How To Make pears, beets and feta salad

  • Step 1
    Gently place all the salad ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Step 2
    Mix the dressing ingredients in a blender.
  • Step 3
    Pour dressing over salad immediately before serving and gently toss. (The salad quickly becomes saturated with the dressing and isn't as good an hour later…so don't put the dressing on too early.)
