This was a great salad. Easy to prepare and hubby liked it.  Will be making this again.

Delicious and enjoyed by all - even the picky eaters. I only had one pear, but it was sliced very thin so I feel it was evenly distributed throughout the salad. I reduced the Pepper Jack to 1/4 cup because I felt the dressing provided enough extra flavor.The dressing is very good and I'll be using it to dress other salads.

Followed directions exactly. Excellent and unique! My husband really enjoyed it as well!

Absolutely loved this recipe!!  Followed it exactly and it\'s already in the cookbook.  I had a  pear that needed used so looked for a recipe and found this....  my husband even ate it and he doesn\'t like salad, better yet said make it again.  Thanks for sharing!!!

Three stars because we liked the dressing - the salad well the ingredients just don’t pair well in our opinion.

Everyone at Thanksgiving dinner loved the dressing.  I substituted Monterey Jack for the pepper jack to make it a little less spicy.

Wonderful salad enjoyed by the whole family.   Didn't change a thing  and liked it so well we made it again a couple of nights later!
