I would definitely make this salad again. It's a great way to use up leftover Gorgonzola cheese.

Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found the dressing to be a bit too oily. I think I would have preferred it with less olive oil or a different type of oil.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less pears or a different type of fruit.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great. The only thing I would change next time is to use a different type of vinegar in the dressing. I think a balsamic vinegar would be nice.

I've never been a big fan of Gorgonzola cheese, but this salad changed my mind. The cheese was perfectly balanced by the other ingredients and the dressing was delicious.

This Gorgonzola salad was a real treat. The combination of the sweet pears, crunchy walnuts, and tangy Gorgonzola cheese was perfect. I loved the way the flavors played off of each other.
