    The pears and nuts were great! I really don`t think you need the additional dressing. As for the dressing I just put it in the blender and blended milk, cheese and the rosemary then slowly poured in the oil till blended. Thanks!

    DH and I loved this salad. The glazing of the pears and walnuts with the honey and vinegar makes for a true taste delight. I used regular spinach which was rinsed and torn into bite size pieces. I followed Rita's lead and prepared the dressing in the blender. Very good!

    Yes, I loved the different flavors in this! I didn't have fresh rosemary, so used about 1 tsp. dried. I really enjoyed the vinegar and honey taste! Thank you!

    This was a delicious salad. But it was a lot of work for a salad. We really enjoyed it for our Christmas Eve dinner...it is great for a special occasion. I made this for Everyday is a Holiday Tag!

    Very good. We didn't have any chives, so I left them out. Otherwise I followed the recipe as written and it was a hit. I cooked the pear and walnuts and made the dressing way ahead of time (5 or so hours) and then put it all together just before serving. My boyfriend seemed to appreciate having a salad different from our usual spinach, pecan, cranberry with oil and vinegar.

    This was great. I was suspicious of adding milk to my salad at first! haha but I enjoyed it. I toasted the walnuts for flavour, it was a wonderful lunch thanks.

    The salad was delicious! The dressing was terrible, we ended up tossing it. I used bosc pears. I plan on making it again and just crumbling the feta on top instead of making a dressing.

    This was a spectacular salad, that was truly enjoyed! I loved the sweetness of the honey with the balsamic vinegar to balance it off. The crunch of the nuts along with the cheese and pear was a nice combination as well. All in all this is one of the best salads I have had! DS loved it too, and asked me to make it again soon, so there ya go! It will be made often, as salads can get boring, especially when you have them often. Thank you for sharing with us Bluemoon!
