This looks delicious! If you want to reduce your calories you can use low calorie goat cheese. I use low calories cheeses in a lot of my recipes and my meals are just as tasty.

Harold…be nice. P.S. I made this salad last night and it was perfect!! I substituted goat cheese for the Gorgonzola (being preggers and all) but it was a lovely salad!! Thanks for posting it!!

I make a version of this… only with granny smith apples.. .then my husband makes his homemade pizza crust.. tops it with pesto sauce.. bakes it real thin.. and when it comes out.. the salad goes on top.. it’s AMAZING.. the heat from the crust.. wilts the lettuce just slightly! It’s our favorite friday night dish!

Every time I go to Disneyland, I get this same salad for $8.50 + tax. And it contains about 95.5% salad greens, 3% self-generated anticipation, and 1.5% everything else. Shameful, and yet I’m an incurable fan even though I know I can make this at home for the cost of a gumball. Thanks for putting me in a Disney–I mean, salad mood though!

Does anyone but me despise field greens? They are dry and stick to my palate. Give me crunch in my greens–romaine-style, or dare I say bib anytime? Otherwise I love this combo….

Oops! I thought I understood the meaning of that word – thanks for pointing out the meaning to me. *blushes*

We’ve enjoyed this salad many times at a bar in Manayunk, PA that serves wonderful food. The only difference is that they grill the thin slices of pear and/or apple and it helps melt the gorgonzola just a tad. Lovely meal!

Too much sweet for me.

Blase is an attitude of not caring, of being unimpressed. How can a salad be blase? Would you mean “blah”… as in uninteresting? .

Now THIS is my kind of salad!!! Crisp and crunchy and with fruit and SUGARED nuts!

I’d just skip the dressing altogether though.
