1 (9 ounce) package fresh Baby Spinach, torn
2 medium tart green apples, chopped

1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cider vinegar

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Granny Smith apples are the best choice for this salad, as they are tart and crisp. You can also use other tart apples, such as Braeburn or Honeycrisp.
  • Use fresh spinach: Fresh spinach is the best choice for this salad, as it is more flavorful and nutritious than wilted spinach. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use baby kale or arugula.
  • Toast the walnuts: Toasting the walnuts brings out their flavor and makes them more crunchy. You can toast them in a pan on the stovetop over medium heat, or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. This makes it easy to have a quick and healthy salad on hand.
  • Serve immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made, as the apples and spinach will start to wilt if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This green apple spinach salad is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, and fiber. The tart apples, crunchy walnuts, and creamy goat cheese make this salad a flavorful and satisfying meal.
