This salad is a great balance of flavors. The sweetness of the pears and walnuts pairs perfectly with the bitterness of the arugula.

I'm not a huge fan of arugula, but I loved this salad. The dressing is so good that it makes the arugula taste amazing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover roasted pears. I also added some crumbled goat cheese and it was delicious.
