Apple salad is a crisp and refreshing dish combining sweet apples, crunchy vegetables, and a creamy, tangy dressing for a perfect balance of flavors.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups apples (cored and chopped)
  • 1 cup celery (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup raisins or dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Wash, core, and chop the apples into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Chop celery and nuts into small pieces.
  3. In a large bowl, combine apples, celery, nuts, and dried fruit.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix yogurt or mayonnaise with lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper.
  5. Pour dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  7. Chill for 15–20 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

  • Add grilled chicken for extra protein.
  • Mix in cheese like feta or blue cheese for a savory twist.
  • Use maple syrup instead of honey for variation.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Ensure apples are coated with lemon juice to prevent browning.
