This delicious main-dish salad provides more than 1 cup of the recommended 2-1/2 cups of vegetables per day.

Tip 3

How to Toast the Nuts

Toasting nuts not only gives them a pleasing golden color but also intensifies their flavor and adds crunch. To easily toast nuts, spread them into single layer on bottom of shallow pan. Bake in 350°F oven 8 to 10 min. or until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally.
