It made me think of the type of salad a place like Panera Bread would offer...and if they did you know it would be at least $7.50 if they did!
First shortcut. You don't have to buy both salad greens & bagged spinach. Most stores have bags of salad that incorporate both salad greens & spinach, so use that instead.
Second shortcut. Don't worry about making your own candied walnuts - feel free to cheat and buy the glazed walnuts, it cuts down on prep and the taste is gonna be the same :)
Third shortcut: To de seed the pear, cut it in half and use either a small melon baller or ice cream scoop, then slice into small portions.
Thoughts on the dressing. The dressing is good if modified. I cut back the white wine vinegar to 2 Tbsp and the salt to 1/4 tsp - I wasn't too horribly impressed by the honey flavour. I think if I remake it, that I'll use Leeds golden syrup -it has more of a buttery flavour which I think will compliment the delicate notes of the pear and vanilla.
