Cranberry, Pear, Mango and Pecan Salad
w/ gorgonzola and balsamic vinaigrette
Ingredients:

8      Cups Mixed Lettuce
1      Ripe Mango
1      Ripe Pear
2      Ounces Gorgonzola Cheese
2      Ounces Red Onion
2      Ounces Pecans
2      Ounces Dried Cranberries
1      Recipe Balsamic Vinaigrette

Use any variety of lettuce that you like.

You can also just buy the mixed baby greens.

Tear or cut lettuce into bite-size pieces.

Wash well in cold water.

Spin dry the lettuce.

Place lettuce into a large mixing bowl.

Cover bowl and chill for a few hours.

Dice the pear and mango.

Crumble the gorgonzola.

Chop the pecans.

Slice the red onion thin.
At this time you have two options:

You can put a cup of lettuce into a salad bowl and garnish with a little of all the ingredients or you can place everything into the mixing bowl, add the dressing, and toss together.

The first option would be best for a special / fancy meal and the second would be best for a more casual lunch or dinner.
