Pear and Gorgonzola Salad with Candied Walnuts

I love to peruse the aisles at Trader Joe’s – you just never know what delicious treats you’re going to find.  I discovered their Champagne Pear Vinaigrette with Gorgonzola and I thought – YUM!  How delicious would that be on a salad with fresh pears, gorgonzola and candied walnuts?  So, I gave it a try – and it was TOTALLY delicious – super easy too!

 

Ingredients:

 

Assortment of Salad Greens

Fresh Pear

Crumbly Gorgonzola

Candied Nuts – I’ve used Walnuts and also Pecans.  Both equally delicious
