Ingredients

1/2

cup coarsely broken walnuts or pecans

1

piece (2 ounces) Parmesan cheese

10

cups mixed bite-size pieces salad greens

1

medium red bell pepper, cut into rings, pieces or strips

1

cup red wine vinaigrette dressing

Preparation

Sprinkle walnuts in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until light brown; remove from heat (walnuts will become golden brown). Cool.

Cut cheese with potato peeler to shave into thin, wide curls.

Toss salad greens, bell pepper, dressing, walnuts and cheese.
