What a delicious salad! With crisp pears, creamy Gorgonzola cheese and crunchy walnuts, it’s sure to please. You can serve this salad tossed any time, but I like to arrange it on individual plates for Christmas to serve with our prime rib. It looks so pretty on the table with it’s red pears. Update: this recipe call for Romaine lettuce which you may not want to use right now. Substitute another, safer, lettuce.
P.S. I can’t say I’m surprised that salad kills. A cupcake would never pull this shit.
