Apple Gorgonzola Salad: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for Your Taste Buds


  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 cups mixed baby greens (spinach, arugula, romaine)
– 1 medium apple, thinly sliced (preferably Honeycrisp or Fuji)
– ½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
– ½ cup walnuts, toasted
– ¼ cup thinly sliced red onions
– ½ cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing
– Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

Creating your own Apple Gorgonzola Salad is wonderfully simple. Follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Greens: Rinse the mixed greens thoroughly under cold water. Shake or spin to remove excess water.
2. Slice the Apples: Core and thinly slice the apple into wedges. You can leave the skin on for additional nutrients and color.
3. Toast the Walnuts: In a small pan over low heat, toast the walnuts for about 5 minutes or until they are fragrant and golden. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
4. Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, apple slices, toasted walnuts, and red onions.
5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese over the top of the salad.
6. Dress the Salad: Drizzle balsamic vinaigrette over the salad. Use just enough to coat the greens lightly.
7. Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, adjusting according to your preference.
8. Toss and Serve: Gently toss all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Serve immediately for the best texture and taste.

By following these straightforward steps, your Apple Gorgonzola Salad will be ready to impress!
