Directions
Pear and Grape Salad, 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!, I remember looking at this recipe when I was a toddler and wanting to make it So once I was old enough to do it this is the first thing I ever made in the kitchen I make this every year for Thanksgiving One thing is to try to find the smallest grapes possible and cut them length wise to make it as cluster like as possible use dark celery leaves to decorate and lay it on a bed of pretty lettuce The original recipe I remember from my mom’s CIA cookbook called for it to be served with French dressing which is very good People always enjoy this salad very much because it is small and light and delightful Sometimes I put chopped walnuts under the pear I remember candle salad from the same era but that’s a whole other story
