GREEN APPLE AND CELERY SALAD WITH WALNUT AND MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE
This was a very crisp refreshing salad - I found it to be a perfect foil to the traditional heavy Thanksgiving spread. And it was so simple to make! I did all the prep ahead of time, and simply tossed the celery and apple peices into cold water with some lemon juice to prevent browning. I would definately put this on the menu for next year.

CELERY, SUNCHOKE, AND GREEN APPLE SALAD WITH WALNUTS AND MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE
Peter Berley, author of "The Flexitarian Table," created this healthier version of a traditional family favorite. "The apple is tart; the celery has a saline minerality; and the sunchokes provide earthiness. Treble, alto, and bass. Walnuts add the sweetness and fat, which really ties the salad together."

CELERY LOVERS' SALAD WITH GRANNY SMITH APPLES AND WALNUTS
I eagerily await each month for my issue of Bon Appetit magazine because of recipes such as this one. The best quality celery and the crispest apples you can find are very important for this recipe. Try to use organic or garden fresh celery with rich green stalks and leaves and not limpy. It will be worth it!

Tips:
- To make the most flavorful salad, use crisp, tart green apples. Granny Smith apples are a good choice.
- Celery adds crunch and freshness to the salad. Be sure to wash the celery thoroughly before slicing it.
- Walnuts add a nutty flavor and texture to the salad. If you don't have walnuts, you can substitute another type of nut, such as pecans or almonds.
- The mustard vinaigrette is a tangy and flavorful dressing for the salad. If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use another type of mustard, such as yellow mustard or brown mustard.
- This salad is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
