Pear & Pomegranate Christmas Salad

Several years ago, my husband and I went to a fancy dinner where they served a delicious spinach salad with pears on it. I LOVED IT! I found this recipe for a Christmas salad (red and green from the pomegranates and pears). I made this salad for a couple of Christmas dinners this year. We loved it!

1 bag Spinach
¼ red onion, thinly sliced
2 whole green pears, thinly sliced
1/4 c bleu cheese, crumbled
arils from one pomegranate
2 Tablespoons candied nuts (almonds, pecans, or walnuts) roughly chopped

Combine ingredients. Serve with your favorite vinaigrette. We used Newman's Own Balsamic Vinaigrette, but it would also be good with raspberry or pomegranate vinaigrette.
