Ingredients

2 bunches arugula, washed and dried, stems trimmed (Look for 5 or 6 ounce sacks of

1 head bibb lettuce, torn
1 ripe pear, thinly sliced
1/2 lemon, juiced
8 ounces Maytag or other blue cheese, crumbled

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 cup apricot all fruit spread, found near jams and jellies (preferred brand Polaner)
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil, eyeball the amount
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Combine arugula leaves and bibb lettuce in a
salad bowl. Squeeze a little lemon juice over pear slices to keep them from browning. Arrange them on top of
lettuces. Top salad with blue cheese crumbles. Combine vinegar and apricot preserves. Stream in oil as you
