Add candied walnuts on top as a garnish (as seen in my pineapple chicken stir fry or see below for how to)

1 cup walnuts, 1 tablespoon butter, sauté in skillet till melted, add 2 tablespoons sugar, sauté till melted. Place walnuts on cookie sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes at 350 in oven. Let cool, then use as topping for soup.
