Salad of pickled pear and blue cheese

August 28, 2012

Came across this tasty sounding salad on the Irish Independent website the other day, we think it sounds delicious!

The Recipe says: “This combination works every time- sweet-spiced piquant pears, blue cheese, crisp bacon and walnuts. We use Crozier Blue, a semi-soft sheeps’ cheese from the producers of Cashel Blue.”
