Spinach, Pear and Shaved Parmesan Salad image

This comes from the Dec. 2009 issue of BH&G. I have not made it yet, but it sounds like it would be a nice Winter Salad. They suggest that you have the cheese at room temperature and use a vegetable peeler to shave it. Then, cover in plastic wrap until ready to use.

This salad is a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The sweetness of the pears pairs perfectly with the bitterness of the spinach and the saltiness of the Parmesan cheese. The dressing is light and refreshing, and it doesn't overpower the
