2 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup walnut halves
2 packages (5 ounces each) spring mix salad greens

In a small heavy skillet over low heat, stir honey and sugar until sugar is melted; add walnuts. Transfer to a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until nuts are toasted. Spread on foil to cool.
