Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Apple (crisp variety such as Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cups Mixed greens (baby spinach, arugula, or spring mix)
- 0.5 cup Walnuts (toasted and chopped)
- 0.25 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
- 0.25 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and core the apples, then slice them thinly into wedges or matchsticks. Leave the skin on for added texture and color.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens as the base.
Top the greens with the apple slices, toasted walnuts, crumbled feta cheese, and dried cranberries.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad. Use a light hand to avoid overdressing—just enough to lightly coat the ingredients.
Toss the salad gently to combine the ingredients and evenly distribute the dressing.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crisp, tangy, and sweet flavors of the Apple Salad Spray.
