Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pears

    Wash the fresh pears thoroughly under cold water. Slice each pear into thin wedges, removing the core and seeds as you go.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad Greens

    In a large salad bowl, place the mixed salad greens. You can use a combination of arugula, spinach, and romaine for a variety of textures and flavors.

  3. 3

    Add the Cheese

    Crumble the bleu cheese over the salad greens, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the bowl.

  4. 4

    Add the Walnuts

    Roughly chop the walnuts and sprinkle them over the salad for added crunch and flavor.

  5. 5

    Add the Dried Cranberries

    Sprinkle the dried cranberries over the top of the salad to add a touch of sweetness.

  6. 6

    Add the Pears

    Gently arrange the pear slices on top of the salad, ensuring they are distributed evenly.

  7. 7

    Toss the Salad

    Using salad tongs or your hands, gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients without bruising the pears.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Transfer the salad to individual plates or serve directly from the bowl. Drizzle with your choice of vinaigrette or olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and enjoy!
