In a large serving bowl combine romaine lettuce and spinach. Gently mix in sliced pear, blackberries, purple onion, parmesan cheese, fresh basil, and optional thinly sliced lemon. Sprinkle pistachios over salad. Top with lemon vinaigrette when ready to serve.
6 cups romaine lettuce , 2-3 cups spring mix, 1 pear, 6 oz blackberries , ⅛ red onion, ⅓ cup parmesan cheese, ⅓ cup pistachios, optional, 2 Tablespoons each of grated Asiago and Pecorino cheese.

In a small mixing bowl or blender combine lemon juice, olive oil, honey, and salt and pepper.
I highly recommend using a blender, but if mixing by hand whisk vigorously 2-3 minutes until smooth. If mixing in a blender, mix for 30 seconds to 1 minute until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a salad dressing container until ready to serve.
optional, thinly sliced lemon for garnish, ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice , ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 Tablespoon honey, 2 teaspoons lemon zest , pinch of salt and pepper

Salad is best eaten freshly made, but both salad and dressing can be made ahead the night before and stored separately in the refrigerator overnight.

Do not add dressing until ready to serve to prevent a soggy salad.
