    We made this recipe for Christmas. Everyone loved it--especially my husband and I!! The dressing is easy and just fantastic. We candied our own pecans just because it was Christmas and I like to go a little above and beyond, but otherwise we followed the directions exactly. We had a little leftover cheese, pears, and pecans, so I bought more arugula and we gobbled those up over the next two days,too.

    There are so many great elements to this salad. Peppery arugula, salty blue cheese, sweet and tangy dressing. Very yummy and a big hit with my kids too!

    Not a big fan of arugula, but tried it with mixed greens and added candied walnuts, all the guests at the dinner party raved about it. This will definitely be one of my go to salads.

    This recipe is so delicious. I get so many compliments every time I serve it and many requests to make it for potlucks and such. Definitely try it...it's very elegant yet so easy.

    Good and easy. Next time I may add some nuts if I have them on hand.

    This salad has become my "stand-by" anytime I am preparing a meal for guests and don't have a lot of time to prep or plan. It is a nice salad dressing, although I significantly reduce the suggested amount of oil. The sweet pears and salty blue cheese (I often use gorgonzola go nicely with the peppery arugula.

    My friend brought this to my house....I love salads...and loved this so much, I could not toss the leftover...so I saved it - and it was as good or maybe better the next day ! When do you EVER eat leftover salad? I have since made this twice..within a couple months. Even my 20-year old - picky college student liked it. Your guests will truly be delighted when you serve this.

    I used goat cheese instead of bleu (since my husband doesn't like blue cheese, but other than that, followed the recipe.

    It was very tasty, and got excellent reviews from my guests. My only suggested might be to top it with some toasted walnuts.
