I have all the ingredients for this flavorful fall inspired salad in my kitchen right now- guess what I’m serving tonight for dinner??
Thanks for sharing and hope your week is going well;-)
You may find me with a suitcase on your doorstep after posting all the gorgeous photos of your area. And you’ve also posted one of my favorite salads…love the combination of pears, walnuts and blue cheese…fabulous!!!
I absolutely love pears and this salad looks amazing! Such a great combo of ingredients…would so enjoy this!
This just made me smile, Susan. I have not bought gorgonzola since I made the pumpkin-gorgonzola flan for FFwD last year which every one in my family disliked, including me. Your salad makes me want to try it again and I bet it goes wonderfully with the pears.
Hi Susan, the salad looks absolutely delicious, I love the combination of flavours and this is what we’ll be having for dinner tonight. Can’t wait to try it, thank you for sharing.
Hi Susan, the salad last night was just wonderful, in fact we’ll be making it again for dinner today. I knew my husband was going to love it but was kind of surprised when my 22 month old daughter asked for more. 🙂 Thanks again for this delicious salad recipe!
