Heat a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the pine nuts and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes.
While the pine nuts are toasting, thinly slice the cucumber into half-moons. Thinly slice the pear (see ingredients list) into wedges. Pick and thinly slice the mint leaves (if using).
In a medium bowl, combine a small drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the spinach & rocket mix, cucumber, pear, shaved Parmesan cheese and mint (if using). Toss to coat.
TIP: Toss the salad just before serving to keep the leaves crisp.
