Pear, Walnut, and Blue Cheese Salad

Serves 4

Ingredients:

7 oz. Mixed greens(I used a combination of escarole, endive, radicchio and romaine),washed and drained

1 Pear, washed, halved, and thinly sliced

1 oz. Blue cheese, crumbled

Optional Mix-ins:

Red onion, halved and thinly sliced

Fennel, halved and thinly sliced

Nuts, chopped walnuts or pecans might be nice

Dressing:

Feel free to pick one that you enjoy. One I often pair this recipe with is a Balsamic Vinaigrette.

Method:

Place the greens in a bowl, top with pear. Sprinkle blue cheese on top, add in any optional mix-ins.

Tip:

Allow guests to dress their own salad. Not only can they choose their desired amount, but if you have any salad leftover, it will keep longer in the fridge.
