How can anyone govern a nation that has two hundred and forty-six different kinds of cheese?

The simplest salad can be wonderful and the following has become a favorite, fresh sliced pears would be a great addition. Salad with Roquefort – serves 4
1-1/2 ounces crumbled Roquefort cheese, more if you love cheese
3+ tablespoons red walnuts or plain walnuts
4-6 cups assorted fresh salad greens: Boston or Bibb lettuce, radicchio, red leaf lettuce, frisee, romaine, and arugula are my choices, but a prepared blend in the produce section works if you can’t finish up several heads of lettuce in a weeks’ time.
Note: I have a rather large glass jar that I store washed lettuce in so I have lettuce ready for several salads during the week. Clean lettuce and dry, place a paper towel sheet in the bottom of the jar, layer lettuce leaves, and top with a partial piece of paper towel and seal jar, Refrigerate.
Dressing, whisk thoroughly, drizzle over salad and toss.
Salt and Pepper
2 tablespoons Grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon walnut oil
1-1/4 tablespoons good red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Roquefort cheese, small crumbles
