Ingredients
3 cups mixed salad greens, washed and spun or patted dry
2 pears, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted, if desired
1/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
DRESSING
1/2 cup confectioner's sugar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 cup canola oil
Directions
Put the greens, pears, walnuts, and cheese into a salad bowl large enough for tossing.
Mix the first four dressing ingredients together in a bowl. Using a hand mixer on high speed or a wire whisk, slowly drizzle the oil into the dressing until it is the consistency of honey. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix gently. Serve immediately.
Note: To keep the peeled pears from turning brown, slice them into a small bowl with water that has a tablespoon or two of lemon juice or vinegar added to it. Dry the slices just before use.
