Pear and Grape Salad image

This comes from The Betty Furness Westinghouse Cookbook. This cookbook is 50 years old! I have not prepared this recipe, but I would like to share it with you. It sounds like a great luncheon salad!

Categories     Berries

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 pear halves in natural juice, fresh or canned
1/2 lb tokay grapes (I would suggest seedless grapes)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 tablespoon heavy cream or 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
4 grape leaves

Steps:

  • If pears are fresh, they should be very ripe (dip in lemon juice immediately to prevent darkening).
  • If pears are canned, drain well.
  • Cut grapes in half, removing the seeds if necessary.
  • Mix the cream cheese with the cream or mayonnaise.
  • Place the pear, cut side down, on a plate.
  • Cover the pear with the cream cheese mixture.
  • Cover the surface of the pear with the grapes, placing the cut side down.
  • Place a grape leaf on each salad plate.
  • Place on pear decorated with grapes on each grape leaf, cut side down.
  • The finished pear should resemble a bunch of grapes.
  • Top with a dollop of mayonnaise if desired.

This salad is a great way to get your kids to eat their fruits and vegetables. My kids love the sweet pears and grapes, and they don't even notice the healthy arugula.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some pears and grapes that were about to go bad, so I threw them together with some arugula and walnuts and made this salad. It was delicious!
