I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, so I used crumbled goat cheese instead. It was still delicious!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pears. I also like to add a few slices of avocado for extra creaminess.

I love the contrast of flavors in this salad. The pears are sweet and juicy, the blue cheese is sharp and salty, and the walnuts add a nice crunch.

This salad was a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of sweet pears, salty blue cheese, and crunchy walnuts was perfect. I also loved the dressing, which was light and flavorful.
