			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today it is a hot summer day and something light and refreshing sounds good for lunch so I have packed a pear salad with spinach, cashews, and raisins with plain yogurt for dressing. Also, a fresh fruit snack for later in the day. The trick to bring a non-soggy salad is in how you pack it.</p>
<p>My bagged lunches (in fact most of my meals) include mainly fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, beans, and occasionally yogurt. To add variety, I try to be as creative as possible when packing food to take with me.</p>
<div id="attachment_1499" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 401px"><a href="http://ruralcreativelife.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/652-P1000701.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-1499 " title="Cool Pear Salad" src="http://ruralcreativelife.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/652-P1000701.jpg" alt="Cool Pear Salad" width="391" height="293" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Cool Pear Salad</p></div>
<h2>Ingredients</h2>
<ul>
<li>Container 1: cut up spinach leaves, raisins, cashews</li>
<li>Container 2: fresh pear (cut into cubes or slices), plus 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (keeps the pear from browning, and adds flavor to the salad.)</li>
<li>Container 3: plain yogurt, I like to use <a href="http://chobani.com/products/non-fat-plain/">Chobani Greek Yogurt</a></li>
<li>Container 4: fresh nectarine cut into slices or cubes, ½ cup frozen mixed berries (keeps the yogurt cold in my thermal bag, and will melt by mid-afternoon, just in time to enjoy!)</li>
</ul>
<h2> Preparation</h2>
<p>To assemble the salad, simply open the container with the lettuce (if you plan ahead, you can use a container that will accommodate using as a serving dish) and add the pear and plain yogurt to the top. Wa-la! instant salad!</p>
