Author Notes
One summer, I had a similar version of this salad at sweetgreen in DC every day for lunch. (When I say every day, I seriously mean evvveerrryyyy day) For some bizarre reason theyve taken it off the menu now, but that doesnt stop me from making my own interpretation across the pond! There is something about pears and brie and almonds that screams "oo la la l'amour" ;add that to a nice bed of greens and you have a happy tummy. :) —yella
