Ingredients

2 to 3 cups of green beans

2 Bartlett pears

4 tablespoons of honey-roasted pecans

2 to 3 cups of washed and dried spinach leaves

1 teaspoon of salt

4 to 5 tablespoons of white balsamic vinegar

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Rinse green beans and snap off bean ends. Boil water, adding salt as temperature rises. Boil green beans for 3 to 5 minutes, taste one for doneness, then drain and plunge into cold water for 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool. Divide spinach leaves between two plates. Thinly slice pears and arrange each on a fan shape on both plates. Top with green beans and nuts. Drizzle white balsamic vinegar onto the salad plates. Sprinkle lightly with pepper to taste.
