I'm on my own tonight since my husband is hanging out with the guys. I actually I'm enjoying a whole night to myself since I get the tv remote all to myself! So what's for dinner you may wonder? With the warmer weather (albeit, 30 degrees), I was in the mood for a flavorful salad. I love salads, especially when there is a fruit, nut and cheese among my bowl of greens. This salad is pretty simple, colorful and has a nice balance of textures...
Pear & Feta Salad
1-2 cups of mixed spring greens
1 d'anjou pear diced
1/4 cup feta cheese
1/4 cup toasted pecans
1/4 cup sliced red onion
1/4 cup light balsamic vinaigrette
In a large bowl, toss all ingredients until well incorporated... and dig in!
Hi ya

Tempting colourful salad. Looks so delightful.
This looks delicious Joelen! I will have to make this.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful delicious combination.
ReplyDeleteI love big bowls of salad too. Pear in salad is one of my favorite combinations.
ReplyDeleteThat looks really good!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it sad when 30 is "warm"? :)
You make the simplest but delicious dishes. I love this combination!
ReplyDeleteBTW, the H will be out of town for 2 weeks and I'll have sole ownership of the TV clicker, heheh.
A very elegant salad! I love it!

I love salads with lots of cheese and fruit too! My favorite is the Cosi Signature salad...so yummy!
ReplyDeleteGreat salad. Good texture combo as well as flavors.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great! I love blue cheese/apple/walnut salads and this follows the same salty/sweet/crunchy formula. I have to try this for a change.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely combo! I don't care too much for bleu cheese so the feta would be perfect for me :)
