Author Notes
This is one of those recipes that just sort of popped into my head of it's own accord. I don't know why, but I am glad it did. It sounds like a sort of odd combination of ingredients but the sweet and salt and creamy and crunchy are (I think) delicious! I will write the salad for one but you can make as many as you need for others or can eat yourself. —aargersi

Ingredients
- Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing
-
1 cup
buttermilk (low fat is OK)
-
1/2 cup
(2 oz) creamy blue cheese (I used cambazola)
-
juice from 1 lemon
-
1 or 2 teaspoons
honey
-
1 tablespoon
fresh dill
-
a few grinds of pepper, and maybe salt
- The Salad (per person)
-
1/2
perfectly ripe avocado - cubed
-
an equal amount of Asian pear - peeled and cubed the same size as the avocado
-
1
strip crispy bacon
-
snipped fresh chives
Directions
- Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing
-
Put all ingredients in a blender. Start with one teaspoon of honey and no extra salt - the saltiness of the blue cheese and sweetness of honey vary widely, so blend and taste before adding more.
- The Salad (per person)
-
Toss the avocado and pear with a few spoonfuls of the dressing. Top with crumbled bacon and snipped chives.

Enjoy in the fall sunshine.
