I did manage to talk my daughters into trying them since they do contain what they already know they love – glazed nuts!

Instructions
For the glazed nuts
- Preheat the oven (or toaster oven) to 375 degrees F.
- Mix all ingredients together and then spread the nuts onto a baking sheet that has been covered with parchment paper. Put in the oven and stir them every minute or two. When the nuts start to caramelize and become brown and bubbly they are done – after about 5 – 8 minutes. It is imperative that you check on them frequently because they can go from perfect to burnt very fast.
- Once done, let them cool then break apart if stuck together.
For the salad
- Wash and tear off the lettuce leaves.
- Top each leaf with a small helping of diced tomatoes, crumbled goat cheese, and glazed nuts.
- Gently crack the ribbing in the leaf in a few places so it will roll over the toppings. Secure with a toothpick and serve.
Notes
- Please note you will need parchment paper for baking.
- * Recipe is gluten-free if gluten-free soy sauce is used.
