Ingredients
Salad
- 1 (10-ounce bag) 50% blend mixed greens and spinach washed
- 2 green apples sliced
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup Gorgonzola cheese crumbled
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces
Apple Cider Vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons sugar (or sweetener of choice)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, toss together all the salad ingredients.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all the vinaigrette ingredients. Drizzle vinaigrette over the salad and toss. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Fresh Ingredients. Use the freshest ingredients you can find in this recipe. Freshness is the key to success with salads.
- Toss Well. Toss the ingredients well before serving so guests can taste all the ingredients in the salad.
- Lettuce - Use green leaf lettuce, Romain lettuce, or your favorite mixed greens.
- Apples - Change the type of apples that you use. Try red delicious, golden delicious, or any other apple you like. Another option would be to use pears instead of apples.
- Cheese - While I like gorgonzola cheese, feel free to change it with feta, goat cheese, or queso fresco.
- Vinaigrette - Instead of an apple cider vinaigrette, you can create a balsamic vinaigrette, or change it completely and use your favorite creamy salad dressing, like ranch dressing.
