When it comes to the Clean Food Movement, look no further than pioneer best-selling author Terry Walters, whose new book Eat Clean Live Well is a testament to delicious, healthy and most importantly, clean food.

These warm and caramelized pears are about to become your go-to fall dessert. We like them served over coconut non-dairy ice cream, and I always make extra to enjoy over steel cut oats in the morning.
