Autumn Apple Salad

I’m excited to share this delightful Autumn Apple Salad recipe with you today. As the weather gets cooler and the leaves start to change color, I find myself craving dishes that highlight the best flavors of the season. This salad is the perfect combination of sweet and savory, with a unique twist that will surprise your taste buds.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• mixed greens (150g)
• apples, thinly sliced (2)
• pomegranate seeds (50g)
• walnuts, roughly chopped (50g)
• blue cheese, crumbled (50g)
• balsamic vinaigrette

To prepare this Autumn Apple Salad, start by washing and drying the mixed greens. Arrange them on a large serving platter. Next, thinly slice the apples and layer them on top of the greens. Sprinkle the pomegranate seeds, chopped walnuts, and crumbled blue cheese over the apples.

In a small bowl, mix together the balsamic vinaigrette. Drizzle it over the salad just before serving, ensuring that each bite is bursting with flavor. The sweetness of the apples, the tartness of the pomegranate seeds, and the creaminess of the blue cheese create a perfect harmony of tastes and textures.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

• knife
• cutting board
• mixing bowl
• whisk
• serving platter

This Autumn Apple Salad weighs approximately 300g in total and serves 2 people. Each serving is around 150g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One clever tip for this recipe is to toast the walnuts before adding them to the salad. This enhances their flavor and adds a nice crunch to each bite. Simply toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until fragrant, then let them cool before sprinkling them on top of the salad.

I encourage you to give this Autumn Apple Salad a try and feel free to customize it to your liking. Add some grilled chicken for protein or swap out the blue cheese for feta if you prefer. The beauty of this recipe is its versatility, so make it your own and enjoy the flavors of fall!
