Mixed Greens' Salad With Apples And Maple-Walnut Oil Dressing - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
6 cups mixed greens, rinsed
1 cup braeburn apple, julienned, cut 2-inches long (can substitute similar apple such as Honey Crisp, etc.)
Dressing
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup (NOT imitation)
2 teaspoons brown mustard (or Dijon)
2 1/2 teaspoons walnut oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
Garnish
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
Preparation
-
In small glass bowl, prepare salad dressing first and set aside.
Use salad spinner to remove excess moisture from the greens.
*In large non-reactive serving bowl place the sliced apples and toss them with a little bit of apple cider to halt oxidizing.
Next, add the salad greens, a few tablespoons of the salad dressing and toss gently again with tongs to mix.
Serve remaining salad dressing on side along with the toasted walnuts if using.
*For best results, cut up apples and toss with the vinegar right before serving.
