Pear and Goat Cheese Bistro Salad

Summer is wrapping up and we are enjoying the last of our favorite summer fruits and vegetables. This Pear and Goat Cheese salad is super light, yet full of crisp taste! The tartness of the green grapes mixed with the sweetness of pear blends perfectly with the creaminess of the goat cheese. Add the mango balsamic vinaigrette and you have yourself one amazing salad!
