Pears with Walnuts & Yogurt
March 14, 2011
If I had to pick a favorite fruit, I think it would be the pear. Did you know there are over 5,000 varieties of pears grown around the world? How amazing is that? Anjou, Asian, Bartlett, or Bosc, I enjoy them all (well, I haven’t tried all 5,000 varities yet, but I’ll add that to my list of things to accomplish). I just love the grainy texture, and of course the juiciness, of a good, ripe pear. And they can be quite satisfying by themselves as a snack! Leave the skin on your pears for the extra fiber benefit while also getting some vitamin C and vitamin K. Enjoy this Pear with Walnuts & Yogurt recipe as a post work-out snack or for breakfast!
Ingredients:
1 Bartlett pear, diced 1/2 inch
2 Tbsp. fat-free vanilla yogurt
1 Tbsp. chopped walnuts

Place diced pears in a bowl and drizzle with yogurt. Top with walnuts.
