PEAR & WALNUT SALAD W/CREAMY BLEU (BLUE) CHEESE DRESSING
This salad is a little different from most pear and walnut salads as it has a creamy bleu cheese dressing, not a vinaigrette. The creaminess of the dressing, the sweetness of the pears, the crunch from the glazed walnuts and a little zip from the dried cranberries make this a very unique and tasty salad. I started making it this way a few years ago, and everyone loved it, so it is a staple in our house now. The combination of the flavors is awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

BEST BLEU CHEESE DRESSING!
I'm a huge fan of blue cheese, and this dressing dazzled my taste buds. This would be great on any salad, served alongside some wings or even dipped in some veggies. Yum-o! Make sure that you make it at least one day before you are going to serve this dressing. It tastes even better when the flavors have time to meld together.
