Serve this beautiful, nutrient-dense salad as part of a holiday meal. The cider vinegar, orange zest, and cinnamon in the dressing perfectly complement the spicy arugula, sweet pears, and salty feta in the salad. Add toasted pumpkin seeds for some more flavors! White balsamic vinegar or champagne vinegar can replace the cider vinegar in the dressing if you prefer.
