Kona Salad

---

This has been around for a while, a recreation of kona cafe at disney's polynesian resort. the addition of smoked almonds thrill me. If asian pears are not available, you can substitute fresh peaches, strawberries, or other berries. chill your salad bowls. it makes for a much better salad.
