Roasted Pear Salad With Goat Cheese

This salad tastes like fall in a bowl! I paired sweet roasted pears with creamy goat cheese and spicy-and-sweet pecans. For the dressing, I used my favorite vinaigrette. (Cooked, crumbled bacon would be a great addition, and blue cheese would be a good substitution for the goat cheese.) Yummy!
