Fall Salad, Apple, Pecans, Blue Cheese
Super quick, super easy, super healthy
Ingredients
Salad
- 6 cups Speing Mix Salad Baby Arugula
- 1 ea Apple Medium, sliced to thin wedges
- 1/4 cup Raisins
- 1/4 cup Pecans Toasted and chopped
- 1/4 cup Blue Cheese God Stuff
- 3-4 tbsp Balsamic Dressing
Instructions
- Add greens to a large mixing bowl

- Add raisins
- Chop and add pecans to the salad.
- Crumble the blue cheese over the pecans.
- Drizzle with dressing.
- Toss well and serve.
Notes
Use small or medium apples for the best texture. I like to use Honeycrisp or Jazz.
Slice the apples into thin wedges.
Toast the pecans and chop them into varying sizes.
If possible, buy good-quality blue cheese in a wedge so that you can control the size of the crumbles. I use Stilton for this recipe, but there are many good blue cheeses out there that will work well.
Use wild, baby, or spring mix arugula, which can be easily found at most grocery stores.
