Ingredients

For the Salad

2 large handfuls of mixed greens or arugula
1 large crisp apple (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith work best) thinly sliced
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup crumbled feta
1/4 cup candied or toasted walnuts
2 tbsp red onion thinly sliced

For the Dressing

3 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp honey
1 tsp dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste

Method

If toasting walnuts, add them to a dry pan over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, tossing occasionally until golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
Thinly slice the apple just before assembling, this prevents browning. A mandoline works perfectly here if you have one.
Whisk together all dressing ingredients in a small bowl or jar until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Add the mixed greens to a large bowl and drizzle with about half the dressing. Toss gently to coat.
Arrange the apple slices, cranberries, red onion, and walnuts over the greens.
Crumble the feta generously over the top.
Drizzle with remaining dressing and serve immediately.

Notes

The dressing makes a little more than you’ll need. You can store the extra in a jar in the fridge for up to a week.
