Pear & Blue Cheese Salad image

This crisp fall salad gets its tartness from fresh pears, an extra crunch from pecans and a hint of creaminess from blue cheese. It's simple, but always impresses. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pears. I also like to add some dried cranberries or raisins for a little extra sweetness.

This salad is so versatile. I've made it with different types of fruit, nuts, and cheese and it's always good.

I made this salad with goat cheese instead of blue cheese and it was still delicious. I think any type of cheese would work well in this salad.
