not dissimilar to Teddybleads - blend gorgonzola, olive oil and balsamic to make the dressing then use it to toss gem leaves and serve with thinly sliced pear, toasted walnuts and small cubes of (more) gorgonzola.

Your suggestion is not really my idea of a salad, more of a pasta dish. I am not convinced. My favourite salad is a greek salad because its so quick to make and travels pretty well for picnics.

Rocket, shredded spring onions, torn Parma ham with shavings of Parmesan - usually with a Caesar dressing.

Broad beans, asparagus, iceberg lettuce, artichokes, spring onions and cucumber, with garlic bread croutons. No dressing - just salt and pepper and a sprinkle of parmesan.

I also like panzanella and /or a nice Greek salad.

And water melon and halloumi

and mushroom and olive

Chicken Caeser Salad (with home-made croutons, anchovies, pancetta cubes and crunchy hearts of Romaine with that expensive shop-bought Caeser dressing)

Salad Nicoise (tuna, hard boiled eggs, potato, black olives green beans and anchovies again! On a bed of little gem and an olive oil, garlic and lemon juice dressing)

or a salad inspired by the 'ensalata mista' you get in Spain - bed of lettuce topped with chopped cucumber, chopped tomato, red onion, grated carrot, chopped green olives, sweetcorn, and chopped red pepper, simply doused with olive oil and vinegar.

That's another favorite of mine, but sans anchovies. Yum!

My favourite salad at the moment began life as a chicken cesaer salad, but I took some stuff out and added other stuff. So it hasn't really got a name, but it is lovely. I am having this for my tea in a bit.

Romain lettuce
Loads of anchovies - the meaty silvery ones in oil and vinegar, not the salty brown fillets in oil out of a tin
Finely sliced red onion
Shavings or parmesan
Handful of fresh coriander
Potato salad
Green olives, sliced up
Strips of chicken, hot from the George Foreman grill.

My favorite as a side dish is Wardolf Castrato. Celery, apple and mayo but no nuts!
