For a savory crunch, add some toasted nuts, such as pecans or walnuts.
If you're looking for a tangy dressing, use a vinaigrette made with lemon juice or vinegar.

To make sugared pecans, simply toss pecan halves with sugar and cinnamon, then spread them on a baking sheet and bake them in a preheated oven until they're golden brown.
Sugared pecans can be used as a topping for salads, desserts, or even just as a snack.
