use toasted walnuts

loved this. used crumbled blue cheese, 1 bag organic arugula from trader how's and 2 large pears and it was perfect for 6. dressing is light and a great compliment.

use toasted walnuts

The combination of gorgonzola and pears is sublime. It would be even better with a more "robust" nut like pecans or walnuts. This is an easy salad with a simple vinaigrette, the sort of thing you feel like you should be able to figure out on your own but I was happy to find the recipe nonetheless.
