Autumn Apple and Pecan Salad
Fresh mixed greens, paired with crisp apple slices, and bits of pecan make this sweet salad perfect for autumn.
Servings: 6 people
Ingredients
- 6 cups mixed greens
- 2 apples, sliced (Fuji and Gala are my favorite)
- ⅓ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup feta cheese
- ½ cup salted chopped pecans
- honey mustard salad dressing (as desired)
Instructions
- Wash and prep the mixed greens and add to a large serving bowl.
- Slice apples and soak in salt water solution for five minutes. Then rinse in a colander and add to the salad mix.
- Add the dried cranberries, pecans, and feta cheese. Toss to combine.
- Serve with honey mustard salad dressing (or dressing of choice) on the side.
Notes
*Tip: To prevent your apples from browning dissolve 1/2 teaspoon of salt in one cup of water. Soak your sliced apples in the salt water solution for five minutes. Then rinse in a colander under running water. Extra sliced apples should be stored in the fridge in a food storage bag.
