Step 1

For bacon: Cook bacon in a dry pot over medium-high heat until crispy, about 10-15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon from pot and set aside to let cool. Drain excess fat (juices), leaving just the bacon drippings in the bottom of the pot. Scrap bacon drippings into the bowl that you will make the dressing.

Step 2

For dressing: In the bowl with the bacon drippings, add white balsamic, honey, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Go light on the salt because the bacon and parm are salty! Whisk together.

Step 3

To assemble: In a large salad bowl, add arugula, cooled bacon, walnuts, parmigiano, and whisked dressing. Toss to combine.Plate salad, topping with pear slices and black pepper.
