ROQUEFORT PEAR SALAD



Roquefort Pear Salad image

This is the best salad I've ever eaten and I make it all the time. It is tangy from the blue cheese, fruity from the pears, and crunchy from the caramelized pecans. The mustard vinaigrette pulls it all together.

SWEET & SMOKEY PEAR SALAD



Sweet & Smokey Pear Salad image

A unique blend of sweet, smokey, crunchy, and caramel make this summer salad a refreshing (and lo-cal) change from the typical lettuce salad. Don't forego the maple flavoring - it's the "sweet" in the "Sweet & Smokey". This is an original recipe inspired by a Pear & Gorgonzola salad I tasted, but I didn't like the Gorgonzola flavor so I mixed it up a bit and added some crunch.

  • To a blender add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, diced shallot and season with salt and pepper to taste (I used a 1/4 +1/8 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper).
  • Blend mixture until well emulsified, about 20 seconds. Store in refrigerator in an airtight container until ready to serve.
  • In a medium skillet melt butter along with brown sugar over medium heat. Once mixture has melted add walnuts and cook, stirring constantly until caramelized, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate in a single layer to cool.
  • Layer lettuce and pears in a large bowl and toss with dressing, then top with parmesan, dried cranberries and candied walnuts and serve (alternately just layer all the salad ingredients then drizzle with dressing. Note: top this salad with dressing just before serving as it will wilt the lettuces after a while).
