Ingredients

Scale

Salad Ingredients

  • 2 Honeycrisp apples, cored and thinly sliced
  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 4 cups mixed greens

Dressing Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the mixed greens, thinly sliced Honeycrisp apples, crumbled feta cheese, chopped walnuts, and dried cranberries to evenly distribute all components.
  2. Prepare Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and honey together until the dressing is emulsified and smooth.
  3. Dress the Salad: Pour the prepared dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl.
  4. Toss Salad: Gently toss the salad to ensure every ingredient is lightly coated with the dressing without bruising the apples or greens.
  5. Season to Taste: Add salt and pepper according to your preference and give the salad a final gentle toss before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh Honeycrisp apples for the sweetest, crispiest flavor.
  • Toasting the walnuts briefly before adding can enhance their nutty flavor.
  • Adjust honey quantity in the dressing depending on desired sweetness.
  • For a vegan version, substitute feta cheese with a plant-based alternative and use maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Serve immediately after tossing to prevent apple slices from browning.
