For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the pecans lightly before adding them to the salad. If you prefer a less sweet dressing, reduce the amount of sugar to 1/4 cup. Feel free to experiment with different types of greens, such as spinach or arugula. This salad is best served fresh; the greens may wilt if dressed too far in advance.
