One of the benefits to cooking a lot, as well as eating out often, is I've tried all sorts of flavor combinations. This comes particularly in handy when I'm tasked with coming up with a last minute side dish, with little time to prepare. This happened over the weekend and rather than pick up something pre-made at the grocery store, I drew inspiration from a great salad I've had out. So this isn't so much a recipe as a mention of some great things that go well together in a salad. :)
Pear and Gorgonzola Salad (serves 6)
Ingredients:
- Bag of spinach or spring mix
- 2 Anjou Pears
- Glazed Walnuts
- 1/2 medium red onion
- Gorgonzola cheese (I used most of a small container)
- Champagne Vinaigrette salad dressing
Directions:
Place salad mix in bowl with walnuts and cheese. Slice red onion lengthwise and add to the salad. Peel pears and chopped into small cubes, add to salad. Toss with salad dressing and serve.
