Recipe By : Home Garden, May/June '95

Line a baking sheet with foil; grease the foil. Set aside. In a 1-1/2 qt.
microwave casserole, combine the walnuts, brown sugar, and water; stir to
coat the nuts. Microwave, uncovered, on high heat for 2 min. Stir well;
cook 3-5 min. more or until sugar syrup coats the nuts and the nuts are
toasted, stirring after every min. Spread nuts on the baking sheet to cool
completely. Break apart.

Dressing: Combine oil, orange juice, vinegar, granulated sugar, basil, salt
and pepper in a screw-type jar. Shake well and chill.

Divide spinach and greens evenly among serving plates. Sprinkle with
sugared nuts and feta cheese. Shake dressing and drizzle each salad with
some of the dressing.
