This salad brings together ingredients that really enhance each other, and the dressing packs a perfect punch with maple syrup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar. It’s a favorite in my family!

- ½ cup sliced red onion (Optional)
- 1 Bosc pear, cored and sliced
- ½ cup chopped candied pecans

Step 1
Place the salad greens in a large bowl. Add the red onion, pear, pecans, and blue cheese, and toss to mix evenly.
