From Cooking Light (October 2001). I love pears, and they are wonderful in salads. Some feta and/or some nuts (pecans, walnuts) would also be good in this.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach, pears, and feta cheese will give your salad the best flavor.
- Choose a ripe pear: A ripe pear will be sweet and juicy, and it will hold its shape well in the salad.
- Crumble the feta cheese: Crumbling the feta cheese will help it distribute evenly throughout the salad.
- Use a light dressing: A light dressing will help the flavors of the spinach, pears, and feta cheese shine through.
- Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately, as the pears will start to brown if they sit for too long.
