This was very good and easy to make. Make sure to use good quality balsamic, it makes the dish. I used butter lettuce, and blue cheese...it was super!

This salad was super simple to make. Great flavors and appearance. Only four stars because my daughter didn't like the pear in it. Otherwise a winner.
