    Default Pear Salad

    Pear Salad

    1 head leaf lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
    3 pears - peeled, cored and chopped
    5 ounces Roquefort cheese, crumbled
    1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced
    1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
    1/4 cup white sugar
    1/2 cup pecans
    1/3 cup olive oil
    l3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
    1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons prepared mustard
    1 clove garlic, chopped
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    fresh ground black pepper to taste

    In a skillet over medium heat, stir 1/4 cup of sugar together with the pecans. Continue stirring gently until sugar has melted and caramelized the pecans. Carefully transfer nuts onto waxed paper. Allow to cool, and break into pieces. For the dressing, blend oil, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar, mustard, chopped garlic, salt, and pepper. In a large serving bowl, layer lettuce, pears, blue cheese, avocado, and green onions. Pour dressing over salad, sprinkle with pecans, and serve.

    Only way I've figured, Mai, is to click on the edit button, then highlight and delete the whole message.

    I would replace it with a one-liner, such as "Post moved to ___"
