This salad comes together in a flash. Use eight fresh figs, quartered, when they're in season instead of the dried. If you don't like blue cheese, substitute the same amount of ch?vre or Brie. This recipe makes more dressing than you need, so refrigerate about half in an airtight container to use within the following five days.?
