Scale
  • 2 Honeycrisp apples (thinly sliced)
  • 5 cups mixed greens (baby kale, spring mix, or your choice)
  • ½ cup feta or goat cheese (crumbled)
  • â…“ cup toasted pecans (or walnuts)
  • â…“ cup dried cranberries (or tart cherries)
  • ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
  • Handful of pomegranate arils
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Fresh lemon juice (to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Slice the Honeycrisp apples thinly and toss them with a tiny squirt of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. In a big bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced apples, dried cranberries, pomegranate arils, red onion, and toasted pecans.
  3. Drizzle the dressing (made from olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper) over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  4. For added presentation, reserve some nuts, apples, and cheese to sprinkle on top before serving.
  5. Toss just before serving to keep ingredients fresh and lively.

Notes

For a finer taste, soak onion slices in cold water before adding them to the salad. To make it nut-free, swap nuts for seeds.
