[NEW] Pear Almond Salad

Keep a sharp eye for fresh pears in the fall for a sweet, creamy salad topping you'll go back to time and again. Carrots and toasted almonds balance the soft pear with a good, crunchy snap. Tip: Toast almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly gold and fragrant, stirring occasionally.
