Chef's Notes

Spiralizing the pear
In order to spiralize the pear you’ll need a just nearly ripe pear. If it’s too soft, it’ll turn to mush in the spiralizer!

Substitutions
In place of pear use apple.

Instead of cranberries use another dried fruit of your choice like figs or goji berries.

In place of pecans and almonds, try walnuts and hazelnuts.

Nut-free
Instead of pecans and almonds, use sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds.

Sugar-free
In place of maple syrup use date paste.
