Alligator-Pear Salad

2 alligator pears

½ to ¾ cup mayonnaise or

Lettuce leaves

French dressing

Alligator pears, or avocadoes, are to be had at fancy fruiterers. Cut each pear into six pieces, giving wedge-shaped sections, and if these are too large, cut each section again lengthwise. Peel and arrange wedges of pears on beds of lettuce leaves. Either French dressing or mayonnaise may be used, but the fruit is rich, therefore the French dressing is preferred by many people.
