8 oz Mixed Salad Greens, washed
11 oz can Mandarin Orange Segments, drained
7 oz can Hearts of Palm, thinly sliced
6 oz Fontina Cheese, finely shredded

Place walnuts on a cookie sheet and place in oven at 375 degrees, lightly toasting for about 4 - 5 minutes. Let toasted walnuts cool to room temperature. In a salad bowl, toss salad greens, Mandarin oranges, hearts of palm and walnuts. Sprinkle with shredded cheese and serve with Orange Honey-Mustard Dressing on the side.
