Pear and Grape Salad with Sweet Basil Dressing

I love to combine seasonal fruits like pears with something a little exotic and unexpected such as cool and crispy grapes. Top it with a tangy dressing that really spices up the fruit and you’ve got a salad you can serve on its own or with crisp romaine lettuce. Basil and grapes are usually available year-round at your supermarket.
