Description

A bold salad with arugula, crisp apples, sweet dried cranberries, pecans and scallions, tossed in a five-ingredient apple cider dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup avocado oil
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbs honey
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 large apple diced
  • 1 Tbs lemon juice
  • 3 cups arugula
  • 3 cups green leaf or red leaf lettuce
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 3 scallions, sliced

Instructions

  • To make the dressing, combine 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup avocado oil, 2 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 Tbs honey, and 1/2 tsp salt in a jar or glass.
  • Stir vigorously with a fork until fully combined and the dressing has a nice, syrupy consistency.Β  Set the dressing aside until ready to serve.
  • In a small bowl combine the diced apple and toss with 1 Tbs of lemon juice to prevent the apple from turning brown.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine 3 cups of arugula and 3 cups of lettuce. Top with diced apple, pecans, cranberries, and scallions.
  • Toss the salad with the desired amount of dressing.
  • You will likely have extra dressing that you can keep for up to a week in the refrigerator. Use for other salads and dipping vegetables.
