Apple Celery Walnut Salad

apple celery walnut salad

This is an easy, kid-friendly salad. It's like halfway between a green salad and a fruit salad, and the different flavors go well together. It's also filling and satisfying without being heavy.

First, mix the dressing in a small jar:

2 tb lemon juice
2 tb mustard
1 tb agave or honey
1/4 c olive oil
1/4 t salt

Chop and add to a salad bowl:

5-6 large stalks of celery
2 large apples
1/2 c walnuts (optional: soak raw walnuts for 4-6 hours to increase digestibility, then rinse)
1/2 c raisins

Combine salad with dressing and enjoy! I'm going to make some right now ;)

This is great! I love adding fruits and dried fruits to my salad. Adding raisins and apples works with everything, and how simple to only use celery! I will try this one!
