Preparation Steps
Make Candied Pecans
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the pecans and brown sugar, stirring continuously until the pecans are coated and the sugar has caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool on parchment paper.
Prepare the Vinaigrette
In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Assemble the Salad
Slice the pears into thin wedges. In a large bowl, combine the pear slices, teardrop tomatoes, and candied pecans. Drizzle with the creamy vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.
Top with Blue Cheese
Crumble the blue cheese over the top of the salad before serving.
