ARUGULA AND ROMAINE SALAD WITH RED GRAPES
I looked into my refrigerator to see what I had...and the ingredients jumped to my imagination. I thought: I think this has to taste good and go well with my baked grouper dinner...and it was not only good but great! The mild bitterness of the arugula and the sweetness of grapes and pickled veggies is a perfect combination. A cool crisp pinot bianco is the perfect match.

Tips:
- For a more robust flavor, use peppery arugula instead of mild romaine lettuce.
- Choose ripe, sweet pears for the best flavor and texture in your salad.
- Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant and lightly browned. This will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use a good quality blue cheese for the vinaigrette. A sharp, tangy blue cheese will give the dressing more depth of flavor.
- If you don't have blue cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as feta or goat cheese.
- To make the vinaigrette, simply whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, blue cheese, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Toss the salad greens, pears, walnuts, and blue cheese together in a large bowl. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and toss to coat.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later.
