Instructions
To Make The Vinaigrette:
- Add all of the ingredients for the vinaigrette to a small mixing bowl and stir with a whisk to combine. Then slowly add the olive oil while stirring vigorously with the whisk.
To Make The Salad:
- Peel and core the apple. Then slice thinly and add to a small bowl or large cup and fill with water. Add the fresh lemon juice and set it aside. This way the apple won't darken in color.
- Remove the skin of the orange, cut it in half, and then into thin slices.
- OPTIONAL: Lightly toast the sesame seeds in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Shake pan often as sesame seeds can get burned in mere seconds. You can skip this and use the sesame seeds raw.
- Add the lettuce in a mixing bowl, the apple slices, the orange slices, the walnuts, sesame seeds, and pour the vinaigrette all over on top. Mix the salad gently and you are ready to serve!
