WATERCRESS, PEAR AND GORGONZOLA SALAD
Mellow pears contrast the strong flavors of gorgonzola in this bright, lightly creamy salad. It's all finished with a sweet-tart dressing of onion, mustard and red wine vinegar. It makes a lovely first course, or simply treat it as two servings, rather than four, and serve it as a light lunch.

PEAR, GORGONZOLA & WALNUT SALAD
The light and refreshing vinaigrette in this side salad offsets the tangy funk of Gorgonzola and sweetness from the raisins and pears. Even better, this salad celebrates fall and has beautiful colors. Feel free to get creative with this salad: Add chicken to make it meal-worthy, choose a different nut or swap Bosc pears for your favorite variety. Be sure to wait to dress this salad until ready to serve or the greens will wilt.

HARVEST PEAR & GORGONZOLA SALAD
This irresistible salad features juicy pears, salty gorgonzola (or blue cheese), crunchy fennel, peppery arugula, sweet dried cherries and nutty walnuts. A quick apple cider vinaigrette ties everything together. It's always a crowd pleaser, and it pairs perfectly with just about any main course, from holiday roasts, to baked chicken, to weeknight pastas. If you're not a blue cheese fan, goat cheese and feta are also delicious (although this salad has converted blue cheese skeptics!). Don't miss my step-by-step video above!
