This delightfully refreshing Pear and Fennel Salad comes together in under 30 minutes, making it the perfect summer salad. There’s cucumber and pomegranate in there too, but adding those to the name would’ve gotten a bit too wordy, and in my opinion it’s the combination of pear and fennel that really shines. You can make the dressing a bit ahead of time and refrigerate it until you’re ready to eat.
