A classic salad suitable for a delicious, nutritious entree! The tangy crumbled blue cheese is delightfully offset by the sweet and juicy pear. Woodsy balsamic vinegar gives this salad further depth and hearty flavor. The greens can also be changed to spinach to give the salad extra nutrients. Roasted almonds or candied walnuts are good options with spinach.

For the salad:
Combine the greens and crumbled blue cheese in a bowl. Toss with enough dressing to lightly coat the leaves; you may not need all of it. Taste and adjust seasoning. Cut the pear into thin slices and nestle them among the greens. Sprinkle the toasted hazelnuts on top.
For the dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk oil and vinegar. Season with salt.
To toast hazelnuts:
Preheat the over to 350 degrees F. Toast hazelnuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet until lightly browned and fragrant, about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool and then chop coarsely.
