Avocado And Asian Pear Salad With Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing

• Buttermilk Blue Cheese Dressing
• 1 cup buttermilk (low fat is OK)
• 1/2 cup (2 oz) creamy blue cheese (I used cambazola)
• juice from 1 lemon
• 1 or 2 teaspoons honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill
• a few grinds of pepper, and maybe salt
• The Salad (per person)
• 1/2 perfectly ripe avocado - cubed
• an equal amount of Asian pear - peeled and cubed the same size as the avocado
• 1 strip crispy bacon
• snipped fresh chives

1. Put all ingredients in a blender. Start with one teaspoon of honey and no extra salt - the saltiness of the blue cheese and sweetness of honey vary widely, so blend and taste before adding more.
2. Toss the avocado and pear with a few spoonfuls of the dressing. Top with crumbled bacon and snipped chives.
3. Enjoy in the fall sunshine.
