FENNEL-APPLE SALAD WITH WALNUTS
A bright and tangy salad cuts the heaviness of the typical Thanksgiving meal. This one, with fennel, celery, apples and toasted walnuts, is all crunch, which the carb-heavy meal can generally use more of. You can make the dressing a day ahead and store it in the fridge, but don't dress the salad until an hour before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that will hold their shape well in the salad. Good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady apples.
- Use a sharp knife: This will help you thinly slice the apples and fennel without bruising them.
- Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. You don't want to overpower the delicate flavors of the apples and fennel.
