Time 17m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup walnut halves
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (good quality)
1 pinch kosher salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 head crisp romaine lettuce
1 rib celery
2 scallions
2 Granny Smith apples

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 325 F.
  • Place the walnuts on a small baking sheet. Roast on the center oven rack for 7 minutes. The walnuts should be a lovely golden brown color and no darker (if they get too dark, they will become bitter).
  • In a small bowl or a ramekin, combine the olive oil and a little balsamic at a time, whisking as you go until you create a thick, glossy dressing. Taste the dressing and add a little salt and pepper to taste.
  • Chop the lettuce into strips and finely slice the celery and scallions. Keep to one side.
  • When you are ready to serve the salad, cut the apples into quarters, then remove the core, slice thickly, and cut the slices in half. You are looking for a nice small chunk of apple.
  • Divide the salad greens and veggies between bowls or assemble in a large serving dish, then sprinkle apples over the top of each. Gently crush the walnuts over each so all the pieces fall onto the salad. Using a teaspoon, drizzle with the dressing. Serve immediately.

APPLE WALNUT SALAD

A refreshing apple and nut salad, with the addition of fresh mint! I use a mixture of crisp apples including galas and pink ladies--- I don't peel them, but you may peel your apples if you wish. Please feel free to adjust the amount of honey to suit your taste. Note: Best made with a fresh light tasting mint such as spearmint or lemon-mint; cook time is chill time.
