Blue Cheese & Walnut Salad
Ingredients:
3–4 oz Statesboro Blue Cheese, crumbled
2 ripe pears, cored and sliced
5 oz mixed greens (like arugula and butter lettuce)
1/3 cup walnuts, lightly toasted
Optional: 1 tbsp lemon juice (to toss pears and prevent browning)
Dressing:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp white wine vinegar or lemon juice
1 tsp honey or maple syrup
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
If desired, toss pear slices with a bit of lemon juice to keep them fresh.
On a serving platter or individual plates, arrange the mixed greens.
Top with sliced pears, crumbled blue cheese, and toasted walnuts.
Whisk together the dressing ingredients and drizzle over the salad just before serving.
