CHICKEN-APPLE-WALNUT SALAD WITH HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING
Served at the 1870 Wedgwood Inn in New Hope Boro, Pennsylvania, this simple chicken salad combines common ingredients in a less-than-common way, and with great results. If you happen to have some cooked chicken in your fridge (or perhaps a rotisserie chicken), you could probably save time by simply shredding that and using it instead of the freshly cooked diced chicken. NOTE: Cook time is chill time for the prepared salad.

Steps:
- To make the soup, place beets and broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until tender, about 1 hour. Drain, reserving broth. When cool enough to handle, slip skins off beets. Set aside 2 beets. Place half of the remaining beets in a food processor. Measure broth and add enough water, if necessary, to make 9 cups.

Add 1/3 cup of water, cover and cook until tender, about 10 minutes more. Coarsely grate the reserved beets and stir into the greens with 1 1/2 teaspoons of oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring often, until caramelized, about 15 minutes. Stir in the apple, walnut oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Set aside.

Tips:
- Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that will hold their shape when tossed with the dressing. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
- Toast the walnuts: Toasting the walnuts brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. You can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and fragrant.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing can be made up to 3 days ahead of time. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or mint, add a burst of flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Serve the salad immediately: The salad is best served immediately after it is made. The apples will start to brown if they sit too long.
Conclusion:
Apple walnut salad is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its sweet apples, crunchy walnuts, and creamy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
