Pear and Blue Cheese Salad

I wanted to make something easy, but kind of gourmet, to take to a friend's place for dinner.  So I made this pear and blue cheese salad.

Ingredients:

Bag of mixed leaf salad

Small handful of pine nuts

4 pears

Extra virgin olive oil

50 grams of blue cheese (I used English Stilton)

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees.  Put pine nuts onto a baking tray and lightly spray with olive oil.  Toast for about 5-10 minutes or until deep yellow or light brown.

While the pine nuts are being toasted, core and slice the pears.  Mix with the salad leaves and drizzle olive oil on top.  Crumble cheese into the salad.  Add toasted pine nuts and toss.

Serve at room temperature.
