This one is always a hit!

Blue Cheese Salad

Mixed baby greens
Chopped scallion or sliced red onion
Candied cinnamon pecans, broken in half
Blue cheese vinaigrette (I use Girards. Marie's makes one, too)
Candied Pecans


Candied Cinnamon Pecans

1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups pecan halves

Directions:

Place butter in a 1 quart casserole dish. Microwave on High for 30-45 seconds or until melted. Stir in sugar and cinnamon. Microwave on High for 1-2 minutes or until sugar is dissolved.

Stir in nuts until well coated. Microwave on High for 4-5 minutes. Spread out on wax paper until cooled.

I keep these frozen and just take out what I need.
