- 2 salad mix handfuls
- 2 celery stalks
- 1 apple or orange/pear, medium
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice

- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
- 2 lices bread or 6 slices baguette

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 400 °F / Gas Mark 6. Cut the cheese into slices, arrange the cheese slices over slices of bread or baguette, put in the oven and bake for a few minutes until the cheese is golden and melted. Cut the toasts into smaller pieces, if you wish.
- Wash the lettuce and spin dry in a salad spinner, season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Cut the celery stalks into slices.
- Core the apple and cut into slices, mix with a tablespoon of lemon juice.
- Toast the walnuts and pumpkin seeds in a dry pan until lightly browned and fragrant, transfer on a plate (they can easily burn).

- Arrange the lettuce onto plates, top with cheese toasts, celery and apple slices, sprinkle with nuts and pour over the dressing.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Ingredient substitutions:
instead of an apple, you can add an orange or a pear instead of walnuts, you can add pecans use melting goat cheese with rind, not soft, spreadable goat cheese use an apple that is a little sour (my preference) or a green apple, rather than a sweet apple variety

- How to make it ahead: You can prepare all the ingredients and store them separately (wash and spin dry the salad - store it in a tightly closed container, make the sauce, toast the nuts, and make the cheese toasts). Peel and chop the apples and combine all the ingredients just before serving!
