Ingredients
- 6 cups mixed salad greens (e.g., lettuce, arugula, spinach)
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 2 Granny Smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta or gorgonzola cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional, for added crunch)
- For the Red Wine Vinaigrette:
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup avocado oil or olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
How to Make
-
Step 1: Wash the mixed salad greens thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel. Tear or chop the greens into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.
-
Step 2: Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. Add the sliced red onion to the salad bowl with the mixed greens.
-
Step 3: Rinse the tomatoes under cold water and dice them into small pieces. Add the diced tomatoes to the salad bowl.
-
Step 4: Core the Granny Smith apples and cut them into thin slices. You can leave the skin on for added texture and color. Add the apple slices to the salad bowl.
-
Step 5: In a small mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, avocado oil (or olive oil), crushed garlic clove, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.
-
Step 6: Pour the prepared vinaigrette over the salad greens, onions, tomatoes, and apples in the salad bowl. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly with the vinaigrette.
-
Step 7: Sprinkle the crumbled feta or gorgonzola cheese over the salad. If you prefer some extra crunch, add the chopped walnuts as well.
