A delightful winter salad featuring crisp pears, crunchy pecans, and creamy blue cheese, perfect for any occasion.
Prepare the pears by slicing them thinly.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean slices and prevent bruising the fruit.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced pears, toasted pecans, and crumbled blue cheese.
Layer the ingredients for an appealing presentation.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Add the dressing gradually to avoid overdressing the salad.
Serve the salad immediately and enjoy.
Garnish with additional pecans or cheese for extra flavor.
