The inspiration for this salad is from a lettuce and pear salad that we had at a theme park a few months back and the candied nuts is from the same too. I always associate colored peppers with fajitas, but not anymore. Every ingredient in the salad mingled perfectly well and the candied walnuts were the star. Of course you could use plain walnuts or any other nut of choice.
When we were at the theme park, there was only this one place that had vegetarian stuff and we assumed it was going to just take a few minutes to put the salad together. But, to our surprise each salad took around 20 minutes to prepare because that person was matching every ingredient to a sheet. Turned out that he was new and the regular guy was on vacation. At least the salad was very good and we forgot the wait pretty soon. Enjoy the summer with this colorful salad. Off to the recipe.
