I’m thrilled to be sharing one of my all time favorite side dish recipes with you today – a pear and walnut slaw! 🙂 What I love most is the sweet, soft pear combined with the salty, crunchy walnuts. It’s an incredible combination and I think you’ll love how light and refreshing this slaw is.
This pear and walnut slaw would make for a super simple, wonderfully delicious appetizer or side dish for your spring weekend meals! The dressing is light and tart, totally spring-y and pairs perfectly with almost any main course.
I hope you love this one as much as I do! Happy weekend!
