Candied Nuts Salad

Here's what I had for lunch yesterday. Thought you might like the idea of candied nuts (walnuts here) on top of a salad. This is a very crunchy salad!

I usually add a few other items to this salad, such as a light dressing and maybe some goat cheese, Parmesan, or grilled veggies or chicken. While I'm eating less and less meat & fish these days, I do like to have a bit of diced grilled chicken around in the refrigerator to add as a topping to salads and other quick dishes.

Tip My kids love crumbled bacon and chopped apples on this salad.

Here are some posts with salad dressings you might like:

• Honey mustard
• Citrus
• Lemon mustard
• Asian-inspired
• Creamy mayo-based

On another note, I was recently interviewed by Ann Parkinson of Lovetoknow.com. She asked me some really good questions about my thoughts on gluten and cooking. That was fun! Thanks Ann!

Anyway, lots of stuff to get done around here, so gotta go for now, but more to come. Have a great day!
