Pear Walnut Salad

Jon's sister, Elizabeth, introduced this to the family and it has become our absolute favorite. I can't even begin to imagine how many times we've eaten this!

Romaine lettuce
Stilton or bleu cheese, crumbled
Ripe pears, cubed
Toasted walnuts (400° – 10 minutes)

Dressing:
1/3 c. olive oil
Big dollop Dijon mustard
Scant tsp. sugar
Salt & pepper
Cider vinegar (1/2 as much as oil)

This is from Beth Hare, one of my clients at the time. Isn't this to be eaten with Cambazola, not Stilton?
Also, you may need to add a bit of water to the dressing to help things blend. ED.
