I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I loved this salad. The gorgonzola was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the pears and the bitterness of the mesclun.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pears. I also like to add some chopped walnuts or almonds.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more herbs or spices to the dressing.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a different type of cheese, such as feta or goat cheese.

I'm not usually a fan of gorgonzola, but this salad changed my mind. The cheese was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the pears and the bitterness of the mesclun.
