Makes: 6 Servings

Enjoy this tasty, sweet fall salad with a savory and seasonal entrée. Use Granny Smith or your favorite kind of apples. Try leaving out the sugar for a more tart flavor.

Ingredients

  • Salad
  • 1 package (10 ounces) baby spinach, washed (or kale or other greens)
  • 1 1/2 medium apples, chopped (can use 1-2 apples)
  • 1 cup raisins
  • Dressing
  • 1/4 cup canola oil (or cooking oil of choice)
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/16 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions

  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Combine spinach, apples, and raisins.
  3. Mix all dressing ingredients and pour over salad just prior to serving.

Notes

Granny Smith apples are recommended for salad, but any apple on hand will work. Try decreasing or cutting out the sugar if you like your salad less sweet.
