Spinach And Apple Salad Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Ravenword / All my dishes 1 year, 8 months ago This salad is great in the fall (apple-picking season!). The toasted almonds on top really make the dish -- their smoky flavor adds an almost bacon-like taste to this veggie salad! Prep:10m Servings:4	Ravenword

Ingredients

1 bag baby spinach

1 small head green-leaf lettuce

2 carrots, chopped

1-2 apples, cored and thinly sliced

big handful of blanched sliced almonds

1/4 cup minced onion

3 Tbsp. cider vinegar

3 Tbsp. red wine vinegar

3 Tbsp. sugar

1/4 tsp. paprika

1-2 drops of sesame oil (don't overdo it!)

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup olive oil

Directions

Immediately toss apple slices with a little citrus juice (I like OJ) or vinegar to prevent browning.

Spread almond slices on a baking sheet and toast them under the broiler or in your toaster oven. They should be well-browned (maybe even with a few burnt ones) to bring out a smoky flavor. Takes around 1-5 minutes depending on your oven -- keep an eye on them.

Make the dressing: Whisk together sugar, vinegar, sesame oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and onion, then drizzle in olive oil while whisking to combine.

Add salad greens, carrots, and apples to a serving bowl. Drizzle with dressing and toss.

Top salad with toasty almond slices and serve.
