Description

Honey Apple Salad: This is healthy stuff that tastes like it should be bad for you. Every bite is a burst of something different: lemony, toasty, fragrant, tangy and as sweet as Mom herself.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Toasted Pecans
  • 1 whole Lemon, Zest And Juice
  • ½ cups Mayonnaise
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper
  • 4 whole Large Granny Smith Apples
  • 1 bunch Fresh Basil
  • ½ cups Dried Cranberries
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey

Preparation

Set a small pan on medium heat and toast the pecans, about 10 minutes.

Juice and zest a lemon into a big bowl. Add mayonnaise, salt and pepper.

Remove pecans from heat and allow them to cool to room temperature.

Peel and chop apples into small, bite-sized cubes. Add to the bowl and coat well with the lemon-mayo sauce. The acid from the lemon will prevent the apples from oxidizing (darkening).

Break pecan into smaller pieces over the apples. Tear basil and add to the bowl. Sprinkle a good handful of dried cranberries and mix well to combine. Drizzle honey over the top. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Transfer the salad to a pretty bowl or dish. Chill until ready to serve.
