Epic Pear, Bacon, Pecan and Gorgonzola cheese salad

This is a great starter salad.  I love adding fruit to salads in the summer.

Ingredients:
-canned or fresh pear sliced up
-mixed greens
-gorgonzola cheese or goat cheese
-pecans or walnuts
-crispy bacon
- (butter, salt, cayenne and brown sugar to caramelize the nuts)

Directions:
1. Cook bacon so it is nice and crispy and then set aside.
2. In that same frying ban add some butter, sugar and the nuts.  Sprinkle a bit of salt and cayenne. Cook for a few minutes.
3. Assemble the salad.

See yummy salads are not hard!
