Add greens to one communal serving bowl or evenly divide them between individual serving bowls. If you’re adding dandelion greens, now would be the time to do so.
Top the greens with pear cubes and walnuts pieces (along with the optional red onion).
If you want some thin cheese slices to your salad, add them now.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt and white pepper (and optional garlic powder). Whisk until it is combined. Taste the mixture and adjust the flavors to your taste.
When you’re ready to serve and eat the salad, pour the dressing overtop.
