Cranberry, Pear, and Spinach Salad

Ingredients

2 tbsp red wine vinegar

2 tbsp water

2 tsp maple syrup

2 tsp coarse ground mustard

2 tsp shallots, minced

¹⁄₄ tsp salt, or to taste

¹⁄₄ tsp black pepper, freshly ground, or to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

6 oz fresh baby spinach, about 8 cups

1 large, ripe red pear, cored and thinly sliced into 12 pieces

¹⁄₄ cup dried cranberries

6 tbsp unsalted dry roasted almonds, chopped

In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, water, maple syrup, mustard, shallots, salt, and black pepper until blended. While whisking, slowly add olive oil until the dressing is emulsified. Pour about 1/4 cup of the dressing into a large bowl. Add spinach and toss until evenly coated.
Divide spinach among 4 salad plates (about 2 cups each). Top each salad with 3 pear slices, 1 tablespoon cranberries, and 1 1/2 tablespoons almonds. Drizzle with about 1 tablespoon of remaining dressing.
