  • ½ cup walnuts chopped, toasted
  • 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds toasted
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Notes

  • Feel free to switch up your nuts to use your favorite.
  • This salad can be make in advance, add dressing just before serving.
  • Let chill an hour before serving. I like to keep the nuts separate and add just before serving to keep them crunchy.
  • This also works well with a southern coleslaw dressing or an italian dressing.
