For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a few crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese. To toast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. Watch carefully to prevent burning. If you're making the salad ahead of time, dress it just before serving to keep the spinach crisp. Consider adding thinly sliced red onion for a bit of bite. Pecans or almonds can be substituted for walnuts.
