Too Healthy?

This is my favourite salad of the moment, I've been making it a lot. It has baby spinach leaves, walnut pieces, chunks of blue cheese, slices of pear and raspberry vinaigrette dressing. I've also used apple slices if I don't have any pears around. It's the saltiness of the cheese, the sweetness of the fruit, the sour of the vinaigrette, and the crunchy texture of the walnuts that make it a classic, I guess.  Does this appeal to you or do  you think it's too healthy?

The only salad I really like is Caesar salad. That being said, this salad does look quite tasty!

LOVE this kind of salad. I order it at restaurants when I can find it on the menu.

Mmm, I'm not generally a salad person, but it looks delicious! I think it has just the right level of healthiness!

no such thing as too healthy! I make the same type of salad with arugula, nectarines, crumbled goat cheese, vinaigrette dressing, and a sprinkle of pistachio nuts.

Thank you for your comment on my blog last Friday.
