I think I have finally found a salad that I can happily eat. I know, me a salad that I love go figure. This one has tons of texture and freshness so there’s no room for me to get bored. The dressing alone I could just spoon it into my mouth. But I digress and wait for the lovely mixture of lettuce that’s peppered with thinly sliced apples, crunchy walnuts and dried cherries. Sounds good right?

My mother-in-law served this for dinner a few weeks back and everyone went back for seconds and thirds. We’ve since made it more times than I can count, including serving it at our coffee themed dinner party to rave reviews as well.

For a twist add a crumble of bleu cheese, feta cheese or even ricotta salata!
