This delightful dish combines the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes and pears with the rich flavor of bourbon for a truly decadent and comforting treat. Sweet potatoes, a beloved staple of North Carolina cuisine, take center stage. Packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber, sweet potatoes are not only delicious but also incredibly nutritious.

We love a good winter salad, this one uses beets and pears (or apples) that are abundant this season for a fresh crunch and with walnuts and goat cheese a well rounded flavor. Hope you enjoy the festive colors of this lighter meal in between or alongside holiday dinners.

This recipe is a great way to add a unique twist to a classic Caprese salad. Use your pears from this week’s box to create a sweet contrast to the savory balsamic vinegar reduction. Try this simple recipe for yourself or your next party as an appetizer, lunch, or side dish and you can’t go wrong!
