FENNEL-APPLE SALAD WITH WALNUTS



Fennel-Apple Salad With Walnuts image

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.

CHOPPED SALAD WITH APPLES, WALNUTS AND BITTER LETTUCES



Chopped Salad With Apples, Walnuts and Bitter Lettuces image

The best place for a salad on the Thanksgiving menu is at the beginning of the meal, before everybody fills up. We often pass around plates of this vegetarian chopped salad (no bacon) to accompany the drinks before we sit down at the table. The salad is a great mix of bitter and sweet flavors, juicy and crunchy, and comforting, too. Sweet/tart, crisp juicy apples like Braeburns, Jonagolds, Honey Crisp and Granny Smith work well here.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that hold their shape when sliced, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
  • Slice the apples thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing better and make them easier to eat.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. You can always add more if needed, but it's hard to take it away.
  • Add the walnuts and lime juice just before serving: This will prevent the walnuts from getting soggy and the lime juice from overpowering the other flavors.

Conclusion:

Apple salad with walnuts and lime is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious salad, give this one a try.
