Tina Green of Albany, Oregon dishes up this refreshing salad as a main course on hot days or to serve with grilled meat. It only takes a few minutes to prepare while the grill is warming, she notes. I first tried it at a restaurant and adopted it to our taste.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
1-1/2 cups torn bibb or boston lettuce
1/2 cup cubed cheddar cheese
1 medium pear, thinly sliced
1 slice sweet onion, separated into rings
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
3 tablespoons poppy seed salad dressing
Directions:
1. In a small heavy skillet, melt sugar over low heat. Add walnuts and stir to coat. Remove from the heat.
2. Divide lettuce between two serving plates; top with the cheddar cheese, pear and onion. Sprinkle with blue cheese and sugared walnuts. Drizzle with dressing. Yield: 2 servings.
