Honeycrisp Apple Salad with Candied Walnuts and Cider Vinaigrette
Honeycrisp Apple Salad with Candied Walnuts and Cider Vinaigrette

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

2 heads frisee, chopped into bite-size pieces
4 cups arugula
1 cup candied walnuts
2 large Honeycrisp apples, sliced into thin matchsticks
Spiced Cider Vinaigrette (recipe below)

Spiced Cider Vinaigrette:

¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2-1/2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons walnuts, lightly chopped (you can use candied or plain)
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon plus a pinch salt
Pinch cumin
Pinch curry powder
½ cup plus 2 tablespoons canola oil

Directions:

In a large bowl, add the frisee, arugula, walnuts and about half of the matchstick-sliced apples, and drizzle lightly with some of the Spiced Cider Vinaigrette.


Next, add equal portions of the salad to bowls or plates, and then top each salad with equal portions of the remaining matchstick-sliced apples and another generous drizzle of the vinaigrette.


Serve as is, or garnish with a few additional candied walnuts.


Spiced Cider Vinaigrette:


Add all ingredients through the curry powder into the bowl of a food processor, and process until everything is well combined and smooth; with the
processor running, slowly drizzle in the oil and continue to process until the vinaigrette is well emulsified and blended.


(This makes about 1 cup, so you may have additional dressing left over which you can store in the fridge.)
