- Divide torn lettuce leaves among 8 salad plates, and top each salad with the fruit mixture.
- Halve and core pears and cut into 1/2-inch slices-- put a pear half, skin side up, in the center of each salad.
- Arrange candied pecans around the pears.
- Just before serving, heat balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat, cooking and stirring until brown sugar dissolves. Off the heat, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
