from good to gourmet: rosemary candied walnut salad topper

Thanks to the garden goodness of summer, we’ve been eating fresh-from-the-garden salads almost every night with dinner… which has led into a great experiment searching for fabulous salad toppers. Our favorite so far? Rosemary candied walnuts. It makes my mouth water just typing that… mmmmm…. They’re so good, in fact, that I thought y’all might want to try them too!

Recipe
2 tablespoons butter
1 12 oz package walnuts
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
generous sprinkle rosemary

Melt butter, add in rosemary. Stir in walnuts. Add sugar, cinnamon, garlic salt, chili powder. Continually stir nuts in skillet (so they don’t burn) for about 5 minutes, coating well with butter, sugar, spices, etc. Serve atop a garden fresh salad. Delight!
