No pine nuts, what to use instead

Help! Book club arriving in 1hr 30m. I'm making a salad, rocket, vine tomatoes, feta and pomegranate seeds, to go with sticky chicken strips and flat bread. It should have pine nuts but I don't have any. Should I use another type? I have walnuts, almonds and peanuts. Or leave them out? And now I've lost the plot over what dressing to do.
All ideas gratefully received. Thanks.

just leave them out, evil soapy little things. Simple dressing of olive oil and a splash of balsamic over the top.

You're being a tad harsh there show Grin. They taste much better if you dry fry them for a few minutes before using.

Either walnuts or nothing - I'm not sure you need the nuts tbh, and I say this as a nutaholic

Thanks ladies. No nuts then. We already have walnuts in the mumsnet 3 ingredient brownies ( to which I added the fourth ingredient, walnuts). Lol.
