INSTRUCTIONS
Heat a cast iron grill pan over medium high heat. Brush pear slices
with oil and grill for 1 minute per side or until just tender. In a
bowl whisk together or blend with hand blender garlic, mustard, honey
and vinegar. While whisking or blending add olive oil in a stream
until mixture emulsifies, becomes creamy. Taste the dressing and
adjust seasoning to taste with more vinegar, oil or salt and pepper.
In a large bowl toss together the nuts, Gorgonzola and mixed greens.
Immediately before service drizzle a little dressing over salad and
toss to coat. Add more dressing if desired. Arrange salad on plates
and top with grilled pear slices. Serve with fresh ground black
pepper. Recipe By :COOK'S CHOICE SEAN & CATHY SHOW #CH1217 Posted to
