We love this salad! I make a few variations to it. I use blue or feta cheese instead of parmesan. I also add some cut up red grapes and dried cranberries. It's easier to candy the nuts if you add some butter. It's also good with the Kraft Raspberry Vinaigrette salad dressing!

Amazing! The only thing I can't get right is candying the pecans without them sticking together. My family loved it!
