Yes! The salad dressing can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for weeks. You can also assemble the salad with the greens, blue cheese and pomegranate seeds the day of and keep it covered in the fridge. Wait to slice the pears, add the walnuts and the dressing until just before serving. The walnuts can be glazed up to 2 days in advance and kept in an airtight container on the counter. Careful, the honey walnuts are delicious just eaten alone as a snack, you probably can't eat just one!
