I made this salad for a picnic last weekend and it was a hit! It's a great salad to transport because it doesn't wilt easily.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pears. I always have a few pears left over from my weekly grocery shopping, and this salad is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The pears are sweet and juicy, the blue cheese is tangy and salty, and the walnuts add a nice crunch. It's a great salad to serve in the fall when pears are in season.

I made this salad for lunch today and it was delicious! I used a mix of green and red pears, and I added some crumbled bacon to the top. It was a great way to use up some of my leftover pears.
