Ingredients:

• 2 red pears
• 2 green pears
• 2 seckel pears (the very small, very sweet ones)
• Juice of 1/2 lemon
• 1/4 cup toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds, toasted, salted, without shells)
• 1/2 cup sugar-free orange marmalade
• 3 Tbsp raisins

Method

Core, but do not peel the pears. Slice pears lenthwise and place in large bowl. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over pears and gently toss to coat. (This will prevent pears from browning.) Add Pepitas and raisins. Measure Sugar-Free Orange Marmalade into a microwaveable bowl and heat on high about 20 seconds. Remove and stir. Repeat if necessary until marmalade has completely melted and become liquid. Drizzle marmalade over fruit and Pepitas. Toss gently to coat. Serve.

Notes: Choose your favorite pears for this delicious and quick autumn side salad. Keep the peels on for color and nutrition. Pears should be ripe, but not mushy. Treat them gently and they will be beautiful.

Number of servings: 6-8
