This is the perfect salad to make in autumn when pears are in season. It’s tasty, healthy, easy to make and a great salad to make for two people. This refreshing salad offers a serve of fruit, vegetables, and omega-3 fats, all without compromising on taste. I personally also love the different textures and crunch – you really need to take the time to chew and enjoy this salad which helps slow down meal times and aids healthy digestion. It’s one for mindful eating.

Directions
- Prepare the dressing by mixing the mayonnaise and lemon juice in a small bowl or jar. Season with a few grinds of pepper. If you like a thinner dressing, thin it out with a dash of water.
- Combine all the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Toss the dressing through to coat all of the cos leaves.
- Divide the salad between two plates and enjoy!
Tips:
- Cut the pear last to prevent it from going brown. Alternatively, if you have to make it ahead, squeeze half a lemon over the sliced pear.
- Have left-over celery? Cut into 10cm (4”) lengths and dip into hummus or peanut butter for a snack. Or dice finely and sauté with carrot and onion to make a “mirepoix”, a flavour base for many recipes such a soups and stocks.
