Description

Peppery arugula leaves meet juicy apple slices and crunchy walnuts, all bound by a bright honey-lemon vinaigrette and creamy feta


Ingredients

  • 2 cups arugula
  • 1 medium apple, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup walnuts
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper


Instructions

  1. Place the arugula, apple slices, walnuts, and feta in a large bowl.
  2. In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper.
  3. Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients.
  4. Toss gently to coat all components evenly with the dressing.
  5. Serve immediately to enjoy maximum freshness and flavor.

Notes

  • To prevent apple slices from browning, toss them in a little extra lemon juice before adding.
  • You can swap walnuts for pecans or almonds based on preference.
  • Add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a subtle spicy note.
  • This salad is best enjoyed fresh as leftovers may become soggy.
