minutesI love this fresh crisp salad! The dressing is light and perfect with the apple salad!
Ingredients
6 – 7 cups Spring salad mix
2 – 3 cups Iceberg lettuce, chopped
2 Honey crisp apples, cubed
1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup dried cranberries
- Dressing
1/2 cup apple juice
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions
- Toast the pecans in 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir, watching carefully so they don’t burn, about 5 – 6 minutes. Cool on paper towels.
- Core and chop apples into small chunks.
- Toss lettuce, apples, pecans, Parmesan cheese and cranberries together in a large bowl.
- Whisk together all the dressing ingredients. Toss with the salad immediately before serving. You won’t need all of the dressing, just use enough to lightly coat the salad…. or however much you like 🙂
