I've made this a couple of times now and plan to serve it again at a brunch party I'm hosting. I love the simplicity of it, but it's very flavorful at the same time.

Absolutely loved this. I only use bottled salad dressing 'cause it's just me here but decided to dress the salad on the plate with this one. Just drizzled the EVOO and squeezed the lemon and it was wonderful. My pear was on the green side but that worked to my advantage--wasn't soft and mushy.
