This salad was so simple to make but the taste was AWESOME!!! I would wait until you are ready to serve as the salad leaves do get a little soggy, but otherwise this is a hit.

I didn't even roast the pears (because my pears were already very ripe but the salad was delicious. I added some goat cheese on top. The dressing seems very very simple but is surprisingly delicious and unique. I'll be using this dressing recipe on all sorts of salads.
