This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before and it was just as good the next day.

I didn't have any walnuts on hand, so I used pecans instead. They worked just as well.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of apple next time.

I'm not a big fan of gorgonzola cheese, but I loved it in this salad. The sweetness of the apples and the tangy vinaigrette really balanced out the sharpness of the cheese.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples lying around, and this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

This salad is so easy to make, but it looks and tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant. I'm definitely adding it to my regular rotation of recipes.

This salad is a delicious and unique combination of flavors. The sweetness of the apples pairs perfectly with the sharpness of the gorgonzola cheese and the tangy red wine vinaigrette. I also love the addition of walnuts, which adds a nice crunch.
