Pear, Walnut, and Blue Cheese Pizza Recipe

inspired by the seasonal offering at Offspring Pizza in Boonville, Anderson Valley, CA. Pair with an interesting dry white wine like Gewurztraminer or Riesling, or if you're inclined toward red, you can never go wrong with a Pinot Noir, especially one grown in the valley.
