apple walnut salad

I love fall. One of the best things besides cool, crisp weather, are the taste of cool, crisp apples. Right up there with the smell of that warm baked goodness.

One of the things I look forward to each year are getting to eat new varieties of apples that aren't available the rest of the year. This fall, I found a new variety that won my heart. The SweeTango. It really lives up to it's name. Released in 2009, it is a cross between a Zestar and one of my top favorites, Honeycrisp—giving it that great balance between sweet and tart. Really juicy and great for baking and snacking.

Hurry they will soon be gone! But before the season ends, mine may also find their way into a salad with walnuts and blue cheese crumbles drizzled with a homemade citrus dressing. Add a few ounces of chicken and you have a complete and easy meal. 

Citrus Dressing

  • 1 TBsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 TBsp fresh squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 TBsp Bragg's liquid aminos 
  • dash of cinnamon (optional)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Stevia to taste

Makes 1 single serving.

Enjoy! Yes, you can. You have many more miles to go!
