Instructions
  1. Slice pear in half, core, and thinly slice. Toss with lemon juice if desired to minimize browning.
  2. Divide the greens, pear slices, beans, walnuts, and blue cheese between two bowls.
  3. In a small jar with a tight-fitting lid, add oil, vinegar, maple syrup, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste, then shake vigorously to combine. Divide dressing evenly over both salads.
