Steps:
- Place walnuts and sugar in a skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves into a light brown liquid and coats the walnuts. Remove walnuts from skillet, and spread them out on a sheet of aluminum foil to cool.
- Place in a large salad bowl the mixed greens, cranberries, cheese, vinaigrette, vinegar, and olive oil. Toss gently; add candied walnuts, and toss again.

KELLYMAC'S CRANBERRY WALNUT SALAD
This is a delicious salad that is great in the fall or winter. I serve with a balsamic vinagrette dressing. I particularly like Recipe #154351 . This is very easy to make but guests are usually impressed because it is a little more exciting than your standard garden salad.
