Cranberry Pecan Salad


I found this in a magazine recently and made it for Thanksgiving dinner but doesn't it sound Christmas-y? It was yummy and a nice change from our traditional salads.

Salad
2 radicchio bunches, torn
1 red leaf lettuce bunch, torn
1 endive bunch, torn
3 pears, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sweetened, dried cranberries
1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted (I think I will try not toasting next time)
1/4 cup Gorgonzola cheese (we couldn't find any in Burley, ID so we used crumbled Feta cheese)

Dressing
1/3 cup pear juice (we used juice from canned pears)
1/4 cup oil
2 T vinegar
2 T lemon juice
1 tsp red onion, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
