I love a fresh salad with roasted pecans, cheese, chopped pears, and a pear vinaigrette. Several of my favorite restaurants have a variation of this on their menu... some with cheddar and blue cheese, others with Gorgonzola.
Over the years I've tried several bottled pear vinaigrette brands and have never liked any of them. They just aren't anything like the restaurant dressings so I decided to experiment with making my own. This is the simple recipe I came up with. It's easy to make in the blender in about 30 seconds. The individual servings of pears can be stored in the pantry and olive oil and red wine vinegar are always on hand.
Liquefy in a blender...
1 individual serving of Dole Diced Pears in light syrup (the lunch box size packs)
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
1/2 to 1 Tbsp of cracked black pepper
Makes 2 servings (double or triple as needed)
Serving Size is approximately 4 Tbsp and is 110 calories
