Honey Tips

How Honey is Made

To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.

In a large bowl toss lettuce, pear slices, cranberries, walnuts and scallions.
In a small bowl combine yogurt, honey, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Pour over salad and toss. Serve immediately.
