Serves 6

Ingredients

For the salad:

½ medium head radicchio

½ medium head butter lettuce

½ large Asian pear, cored and diced

4 pieces bacon, cooked and crumbled

½ cup pomegranate arils (if not in season use fresh raspberries for a splash of color)

For the dressing:

1 medium shallot, minced

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

½ teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

Wash and thoroughly dry the radicchio and butter lettuce. Thinly slice the radicchio and tear the butter lettuce into bite-sized pieces.

Arrange the butter lettuce and radicchio on a large platter or in a large salad bowl. Top with Asian pear, bacon, and pomegranate.

Whisk all the ingredients for the salad dressing together in a medium bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve.
